[QUOTE="HardofWhoring, post: 8837317, member: 674149"] IT SOUNDS LIKE, they are wired to an accessory circuit. If they were on a 12v / power wire, they would always be on, even when your vehicle is off. When they are on accessory, they lose power when you start/ are cranking the engine. If your head unit doesn't lose power, it may already be on a delayed shut off. Your amps should have two wires that need to be connected, your main power wire, and your small remote (blue w/white stripe/ switch wire). That blue w/ white stripe remote wire is what is losing power when you crank. I would think you either need to give that wire a delay in shutting off, (possibly with a small capacitor, but I think Chevy owners have already gone through this), or you need to find a new place to run that switch wire.
