Okay, I'll try to give as much info as possible.
Car: 2002 Pontiac Grand Am
Amp: Kicker 400.1
Sub: Kicker 400 CVR
Okay, I've had the amp/sub combo for about 6 months with zero problems until 2 weeks ago. I went to my car and the battery was dead. Thinking I left the lights on, I got a jump and went about my business. Next morning battery was dead again. Bought a new battery and things were perfect for a week, then another dead battery last night after work. I took the car to Pepboys for a parasitic draw and they could find nothing except tell me it was prob the amp, being as it's the only thing large enough to drain my battery that fast. I have the remote turn on wired into my wiper fuse since they only turn on when the car is on. Could this be a problem or should I check the amp ground? Not sure what to do for now so I'm disconnecting the negative terminal while I'm at work so I can get home. Any help is greatly appreciated.
