    I was installing 2 10" subs and an amplifier in my 2005 Toyota Tacoma DC after running the ground wire, power wire, AC cables, remote wire, and wiring the speakers to the amp I'm not getting power to the amp or the radio. My clock and dome light are working, and pretty much everything else except the radio and the amp. I checked the two radio fuses under the hood and the doom light fuse. I also checked the ACC fuse under the panel on the drivers side. Does anyone have any idea of what else it could possibly be?? Thanks

    Did you check the fuse on your wire running from the battery to the amp?

    Yes I did. I used a circuit tester and I'm not getting power to the radio. I'm getting power to the amp but im guessing it won't turn on due to the remote wire not getting any power.

    Do you have all the connections hooked up to the radio? I know some HU's have a separate wire running from battery to HU. I'd double check all the connections to the HU. Check your ground too.

    Factory or aftermarket HU?
