Also it's been in my trunk for a month not being used in the brutal cold could int need to be warmed up?

Bad ground. Unhook ground from amp, use DMM and measure continuity from amp ground input to wherever your ground is. You want as little resistance as possible. If that's good, check the continuity of your ground wire for possible opens. If that's good, check to make sure your power wire has voltage. If that's good, check remote wire. If everything reads good, something's wrong with the amp.

Yeah I checked everything fuses power wire ground wire speaker wires remote wire everything's getting power I read that one kid was having issues when it was cold but it would turn in After 5 minutes when he restarted his car I wonder if mine will do the same its been sitting in my trunk for a month

Bench test the amp and see if it works, if it works on the bench then something else is wrong inside the car, if the amp does not power up then you know what the problem will be.

Is there anyone who has a test bench in Maine?

[SIDE SHOW]

plug phone directly into the rca inputs of the amp (with a headphone to rca adapter) if it works then the issue is either within the headunit or the rca's or rca connections

[nathanb5533]

fixed it the fuses were blown

Some times it's the simple things we overlook when trying to troubleshoot problems, always check the easy things first before going into other areas of possibilities.

But you said you already checked fuses.... You lie!
