Sub keeps kicking off - Can't find the issue

Hello Everyone and Happy New Year.

I have a Pioneer TS-WX1010A setup in my truck. It has been in the truck for roughly a year with zero issues. Now all of a sudden the sub will kick off and on and I'll see the power light dim down/off when it happens. I immediately thought it was a ground issue. So I redid ALL of the wiring and double, triple checked everything and even located a new ground. Still same exact issue.

Now here is the strange part, if the car is not running and the radio is playing the sub works 100% perfectly fine. No issues at all! Once you start the car and drive for about 5-10min or even sitting still it starts to happen.

Any ideas at all? I was thinking maybe a remote or RCA grounding out during driving but open to suggestions.

put a volt meter on the power and ground at the sub, what is the voltage at sub when playing the radio and truck off.
Now drive around when it starts doing it, what is the voltage.
Does the unit have a sub sonic filter switch?

Let me test that tonight and get back to you, I do not think it has a Sub Sonic Filter switch.
