did u run a new positive cable from the battery? is it grounded properly? are there fuses and if so not blown? is it brand new or secondhand when u bought it? get out a multimeter and check if the amp is actually getting power if it is it may be blown if not then re-check all your wiring is done correctly

The wire that tells it when to turn on? Read the manual dude. Either connect it to the remote output on the deck, or to accessories on your ignition.

No he's not, he had a problem and asked, we all have to learn sometime. He didn't chop 2 massive holes in the back of his car to be hektik or have 5 guages in his car when it's an NA auto.
