[QUOTE="maylar, post: 94836, member: 541144"] Get a voltmeter (DMM or VOM) or 12 volt tester. Put the neg lead on your amp's ground terminal. Measure the +12 terminal and make sure there's power there. Measure the REM terminal and make sure there's power there too. If both are +12 volts and the amp isn't on, it's broken. Measure RIGHT AT THE AMP'S TERMINALS. Don't assume that just because there's a wire between two points the voltage must be the same. It could be something as simple as a bad crimp terminal on a wire.
