I was FINALLY installing my rainbow slc's and P.G. xenon, and once wired up, the amp does not turn on.

Apparently these amps have no internal fuse, had I known that I would not have bought it. The fuse in the power line near the battery seems fine, and the remote wire seems to have power. What could be the problem?

I only wired up the left side, but it wouldn't need both sides to turn on right?

I bought the amp from HookedOnTronics, and after reading a bit on their site, I don't think ill have any luck with a warranty.

First try jumping your power connection directly to your remote connection just to see if it turns on. The signal on my HU was not strong enough to turn my amp on and I had to build a relay into the power wire using the remote line off the HU.

hold.... isnt the remote a low voltage signal ? like 5v ?i may be wrong but i always thought it was and i wouldnt put 12v to a 5v.... i would double check that you have the correct wire running to the amp often people mix up the power antenna and remote.... i have done it and im sure everyone else on here has... try that then contact...
