You are using the wrong wire out of the Kenwood to turn on the BMW amplifier.

You have a blue and a blue white. One is powered whenever the Kenwood is ON, the other is for power antennae and is only powered when the TUNER is on.

Switch these and you'll be... well, not exactly fine, but this problem will be addressed.
