[QUOTE="castorjay, post: 1118541, member: 563140"] how likely is it that the wires to my amp are bad? i just bought a new amp because i thought my old one was blown (the led wouldnt even come on) after installing the new one, the light on it still wouldnt come on. i thought it could be a bad remote wire, so i ran the remote wire directly from the cd player to the amp, that didnt change anything so i know the remote is fine. i reattached the power to the battery just to make sure the connection was fine. i even tried hooking up a nother cd player just to see, still not even the light on the amp came on. i checked the ground wire, it seemed to be fine. the only other thing i can think of to try is hooking up another set up RCA's and seein if that worked, but i doubt it since it wont power on, much less play music. there could be a fuse blown in my car, but the fuse on both my old and new amp were fine, as well as the fuse on the power cable. i guess i could also try a different grounding spot. other than that i am out of ideas. any suggestions?
