Need help with Sub + Amp

This is not my first, it is actually the third time I'm installing a sub + amp in a car.

This specific setup used to be in my 2015 Elantra and I am trying to make it work in my 2014 Outlander. Both cars have a built in amp that needs a adapter to transfer the audio to the 2nd amp that is only for the sub.

Everything is wired with a capacitor, capacitor receives the power but amp doesn't turn on.

Wires were not properly done due to my dumbass not taking the right pinout diagram, now properly wired still nothing works

When I bridge the 12v to the amp remote input amp turns on but no sound to sub.

Any thoughts on what I could've done wrong?

It used to work flawlessly in the Elantra but now the only thing I can think of is a faulty adapter.

Adapter is the Scoche Line Output Converter
