Odd remote wire issue.

Ok, so I close everything up after working on my car and getting everything functional. Then I turn the car on and the stereo wont turn on. I take everything apart and realized I accidently bolted on the remote wire severing it. I cut the wire and get it reconnected and the head unit or amps or any car stereo stuff wont turn on. I have an alpine iva-d900. It's really bugging me now. I've redid the wires so many times now it aint funny and all the fuses are just fine.

So you got a $2300 or so(depending on what you paid) paper weight? That blows man. Grab your digital multimeter and find where your problem is, no voltage, bad ground.....etc.

Unfortunately it sounds like you fried the remote output circuit on the HU. They don't like being shorted //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Well, it's under warranty so I don't have to worry about my money going to waste. Just sucks that I'll have to wait to get it replaced. Thanks for the info.
