Ok, here is the deal, i took a test light to see why my amp isnt turning on and it has power for a fraction of a second, and then turns off, I checked the fuses first none are blown. I tested 2 amps to see if it might have been the amp causing it, but to no success....can someone help me, i dont think the amps are fried either

Wires? Check Power/Ground, possibly relocate your ground. Also, bridge power to Remote.

Did you just install the equipment?
If not, what did you change?
You try bridging Power to Remote?
