ok i just put a third amp in my trunk for my 6x9's.

I have 0g coming from the main batt to a fused distro block and three 4g comming out; one to each amp.

I have the same ground as i had before, going through the same distro block it was going through before, to each amp. The only difference is now im using the third output on each distro block.

I have one remote wire comming from the HU to the first amp. then to the second amp. then to the third. THIS MAY BE MY PROBLEM?

_____________________________________________________________________

Basically what happens is when i turn on/off my HU, the amps wont turn on/off. BUT for some odd reason, when i lift my back seat back up.. all 3 amps turn on and play normal.. the HU still doesnt turn them on or off at that point.

You shouldnt load that remote wire up so much regardless of it being the problem or not, but is there any chance of a pinched wire in the back seat area. I had that issue one time it was the arms that swing the seat up and down cutting into the wire. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

I hooked up my amp to the power antenna once. It took me an hour to figure out what it was. Felt like a retard after I figured it out.
