[QUOTE="zoltman1991, post: 8877253, member: 691561"] Here is my situation: I recently had a sound system upgrade. I had a CXA400.1 with LC2i. This was swapped out for CXA1200.1/LC2i. They switched power cables to 4awg. I don't think there is a reason they would've touched the remote wire. Anyway, two days after, the battery died. Car still turned on, but couldn't turn over ignition. I noticed the amp/LC2i lights were on while car was off. I believe my remote acc. wire was installed improperly and the amp was remaining on over night with car off. If the amp/LC2i is drawing power with car off, the lights will be on, correct? These lights should be off. Now, when the car is off, the amp/LC2i lights are off. Does this mean I've fixed the issue? How can I confirm with a multimeter. [/QUOTE]
