Where did you get your remote lead from? If ignition, then verify at the amp its not touching constant. If it is, that would be the cause.

Which wire is tapped in to for your remote turn on?

Get behind the radio and start testing. The car's accessory wire behind the radio turns the radio on when you put the key in. If you dont have a multimeter to test stuff, start disconnecting one by one til you get it to work. Theres probably nothing anyones going to be able to tell you to magically fix it, just dig in and figure it out.

yea if the constant power is touching the ignition wire even alittle, this will happen.. make sure all your wires to your amp are installed clean in the amp..

I replaced the ground wire with a ground wire with a end connector, the other one was just the wire, so i guess it was touching the other amp wires, and it fixed the problem, but now my other problem is the sub still isnt working.
