Your remote wire goes directly to the remote on the HU.

Something is not adding up about your description.

Need more info and pics if possible.

wires are not done and installed correctly or else it would turn on. Check for breaks on the line and check all connections bro. It happens to the best of us.

Why did you order new power wire? Your remote wire isn't hooked up correctly, not your power wire.

Just in one ear, out the other.... How about you check connections before blowing more cash on things you dont need.

Where does the remote hook up to?

I needed new wire anyways, i had a slit in the power wire and i just put Electrical tape over it! Also i was running 4 gauge and wanted to run 0 gauge

Get your dmm out and make sure your seeing power at the amp. Sometimes fuses can look good but not be

Not my first time by far! This is the first time ive ever encountered this problem! I never even changed the wires after i unhooked my last amp, just plugged everything back in on the new amp and nothing, plug my old amp back in and works fine!!!!
