Ok i was driving down the road. Then my amp turned off and then came back on for a second.And on the amp is not turning on and none of the lights are on either. I haved checked the fuses(amp and power) and the circuit breakers.The setup is from the battery there is a circuit breaker. Then from the second battery another CB. Then about a 6 inche piece of wire to the fuse  and then to the amp. The amp is PG octane-r R15.0:1.

Have you checked the ground to chassis and at the amp? Also power wire at the amp?

i have check both of them. At the amp battery and chassis. So tomorrow im going to use a DMM. So i can see if it's the wires or the amp.

So i have found that it is the remote wrie. But here is my problem now. I  have run a wire back from the deck to the remote. But when i do this once the red light came on. Also tried jumped to the power and nothin. Also up front if i unhook the remote the the power ant my door speakers will shut off. And sometimes the amp will turn on when i turn the car on but then turns off. I have took it to my local shop for a bench test and it worked fine.

You're probably best off having a shop troubleshoot this for you, and let you know what needs to be done.
