i hooked up the system today and im not getting any power to my amp...everything is hooked up correctly, ive done many systems before. is it possible that my cap. is blown? the ground that im using is that little bracket on the right side of the trunk that holds the jack in place, i grinded it down on both sides....ive tried 3 different amps...the remote wire is hooked up correctly but no power still...please if you can help me that would be great thanks...

 

What do you mean you're not getting "any" power to the amp? Is there power on your cabling?
Do you have a multimeter? Just check to see if there's actually power there.
Check your fuse and check that the remote lead is working properly.

yeah, check to see if theres power at the end of your cable. recheck fuses.

 

the bracket that holds the jack will not work as a suffiencient grounding source.. i tried already...
