    Did you check continuity with a meter on the remote wire? I'd do that before replacing it. Does it have and sharp bends or spots it may have gotten pinched and broken? I just googled and it says could be the head unit? Does head unit work OK? I assume no problems ther. Good luck.

    More shit then I ever planned on doing
    Put a meter on the remote wire coming out of the head unit. Turn unit on and if you’ve got 12 volts it’s most likely the wire between there and the amp. If you don’t then it’s the head unit.

    could be an inline fuse right off the back of head unit. Check owners manual for wire diagram or pull the head out and look. since you should be doing that to check for power there anyway.
    If there is a fuse and its blown the wire between to head and Amp probably has a short.
