Are you talking about the turn-on wire to make the amp wake up? I believe it's the single wire in the second harness to the radio, you need to tap into that to make the M&T amp turn on.

It never gets used for anything AFAIK.The remote turn on lead for the amp is in pin B3 of the main harness. It actually has two thin black wires coming from it. Tap into either one.

Yes I know exactly what wire you need to tap into .. I messed with mine for 2 hrs trying to figure it out... if your looking at the harness (unpluged) and the clip is at the top its the third wire from the bottom left on the bottom part... its a solid black wire. after I hooked my remote wire to it everything worked great.. if you cannot find it I will take mine apart and try to get pictures of it and post it... Let me know if this helps... Later...
