[QUOTE="audiobaun, post: 8661812, member: 634282"] Surely that red wire connected to the trunk lid isnt your ground wire??? Take the amplifier out of the car.Go to the car battery.Remove both 40 amp fuses and check see if they arent blown/replace them. Prepare the ground connection wire at the amplifier and prepare another for the positive and the remote wire connection. wire the remote to the positive and connect both to the positive post on the battery, and then connect the ground to the ground on the battery.If it lights up, its working/powering on.You can take it and have it tested at a local audio shop for about $20-30 bucks for performance.If that red wire on the trunk lid is your ground wire, find another solid grounding point such as the body frame.
