[QUOTE="fbi90909, post: 4565950, member: 568679"] this is not a remote wire issue. amps don't need much voltage to turn on from your remote. most head unit remote lead out isn't even near 6v you could run 2-3 amps off a remote turn on before wanting to up it to 12v using a relay. as for your amps turning off and on, the one that overheats, how do you have the gains set? are they set high? do oyu have the bass boost turned all the way up? where do you have the grounds located? did you sand off the paint? as for the mmats amp are the wires clean and no stray wires tapping into each other? are your speaker wires pinched? it is possible that the amp could be blown since it's going into protect, or even a speaker is shorted out and causing it to go into protect. you need to trouble shoot your amps. unhook everything plug in the power, remote, then the ground. turn on car/head unit. if both amps turn on your good. turn off car/head unit, plug in rcas. turn on car/head unit, if everything turns on again then your good. turn off car/head unit, plug in speaker wires turn on car/head unit, if an amp shuts off then something is wired incorrectly or you have a short.
