[QUOTE="jluv, post: 3104656, member: 567917"] A remote lead is simply switched power. You don't even have to run it from your head unit, but you don't want to have constant power from your battery to the remote input or your amps will stay on 24/7. I run switched power from the factory harness to a relay, and then from the relay to my head unit, amps, and other pieces of my system that require switched power or have "remote" leads. How many amps do you have hooked up to the head unit? Are you using a relay? Some head units can't handle feeding switched power to more than 2 or 3 amps. I don't think that's your problem, but consider using a relay just to be safe. Sounds like a loose connection to me. I agree with frzninvt that you should retrace your wiring. [/QUOTE]
