Your head unit only controls turning the amp on and off when the head unit is powered on or off. Wire a switch in between the amp turn on wire so you can control it manually.

Use the remote on signal lead from your head to the remote on input of the amp.   It's usually a blue wire.

or blue/ white. If it is a factory head unit then you will have to use the ignition wire.
