Blown fuse, probably a 7.5A in under hood fuse box.
What is the make and model of HU, are you using the HUs internal amp?

What year is an "EG" sorry can't remember all the letter designations

I had a similar problem in my sol. The constant wire was only reading 3v with a brand new fuse.

Ended up running a new fused power lead from the fusebox. May or may not be the solution for you
