For it to work it has to be plugged into the amp inself, so something relies on the diagnostic wire I'd say.I also assume its different to your normal signal wire due to the wire diameter.Tap into your accessories wire from the back of the cigarette lighter plug.

It is very hard to tell whether the level you are using is too high. If you buy better quality level converters (actives ones for example) then you shouldnt have this problem.
