I have a sub and amp wired in my GFs car. To the best of my knowledge, everything is wired appropriately. My problem is this: the amp randomly shuts down and the little light turns red indicating its being "protected". It baffles me because I have everything hooked up appropriately to my knowledge, the only thing i could think of is something to do with the remote wire, which turns the amp on and off...but its plugged into the back of the deck to the wire that says "system remote control" and its blue. This is the right wire correct? And no, its not an overheating issue because the amp would run for hours and never need to stop and cool, but now it is doing this. Nothing is blown either because when it works, it works flawlessly. The sub pounds and the amp stays on as long as i want it to... until i turn the car off, turn the deck off or switch CDs, then the amp cuts out and becomes protected...it just frustrates me because it will stop working and then ill just move the amp around a little or something to that affect, and it comes back on until i do any of the things i listed above...

Sorry about the vagueness, but it is what is is

any help or tips way appreciated...
