Default Help With Installing my 12" sub and Amp Please!!!!

Ok I installed my deck and front and rear speakers on my own. My Pioneer amp/sub came in. I have the box and I bought the wiring kit. The sub is a single voice coil if that helps at all. Ok How do I hook my sub and amp up. I no the big blue cable goes to the battery but then where to I connect it to? ( I presume the Amp). There is another wire with 2 rca jacks on each side. I take it that that goes from my adeck to the amp. No what else do I do

One more question. The wiring Kit I bought came with the power cable, 12v power thing, ground kit, and race cables, What type of wires do I need to run from the amp to the sub?

THE BLUE WIRE DOES NOT GO TO BATTERY!!! The blue wire is for on/off for the amp. Should go to wire off head unit.

what kind of wiring kit did you get? All you need now is a power (red), blue, ground (black), and speaker wire.

yes, you are correct about the rca's. Some rca's are directional so make sure you ahve them going the right way if in fact they are.
