Well yesterday I went to my car after leaving it sitting for 2 days and it was completely dead. Got the volt meter out and my battery was at a 0. I figured out that it was my amps draining it because theyre not turning off when the car is off anymore. I have the remote hooked up to the rear fuse box (I think its tapped to #7). It was working before (I think, never noticed an issue) but now its draining everything quick.

Also when I disconnect the remote wire from #7, the amps don't shut off. Any ideas?

 

I used the remote from my head unit, but it's aftermarket. I would say tap another source.

 

i have an aftermarket headunit too.

shouldnt it go off when the remote isnt plugged into anything?

 

Yeah, it's suppose to now that I think about it. The cigar lighter fuse blew in my car and my radio wouldn't come on, but it's because I tapped the cigar lighter as the remote. Sounds like you're getting power to your remote wire some how even with the car off. Make sure it's not making contact with your power wire.

 

it was still on even when i disconnected it.. this is weird haha

 

can anyone tell me what fuse #7 is on the rear sam? thats what its tapped into (im pretty sure i read somewhere that it goes on and off with the car)
