[QUOTE="SonicRed, post: 8711150, member: 680242"] First thing that comes to mind is a loose connection somewhere, but since you mentioned that you have melted wires, I would double check that everything is connected properly in terms of voltage/amps. You can easily determine if it is the battery wire, but connecting a voltmeter to the cable while the amp is turning off/on to see if the voltage through the cable is steady. Follow that trail all the way to the amp terminal. If it is steady at the amp terminal, then you know it is the amp. It could also be your remote turn on wire, or even your head unit telling the amp to turn off/on through that wire. Start with the battery cable and go from there. [/QUOTE]
