B+ Batt B- Batt Ground.

then i have it right, why wont it turn on? could the fact that i am using a 10 gauge power be it? it shouldnt be. maybe the amp is trash? if so i got ripped off.

Do you have the remote wire installed?

If you so, try running a wire from the B+ to the Rem and see if your remote lead is messed up from your deck.

And if that doesnt work your amp is toast.

after posting my last message i went outside and started trouble shooting, checked the ground and the power then i decided it HAD to have something to do with the remote and the amp wasnt being told to turn on, so i pulled out the deck and sure enough my remote wire got pinched and got pulled out of the crimp.
