Headunit wont turn on and amp wont turn off?
Yesterday while driving I had this weird problem with my head unit. My headunit froze but the music was still playing. Afterwards I turned off my car and the headunit wouldnt turn on, but the amp light was still on. After doing some research I found out that taking out the remote wire from my two amps turns them off. With the key not in the ignition, if I put the wires back in they turn on. So my question is whats the problem with my amps? and do you think I will have to replace my headunit? It's fairly new, not even a year and I've had the amps since 2007. The amps are Infinity Reference 1100a and 475a and headunit is kenwood dnx5140.
thanks
thanks

Could it be faulty wiring maybe coming out of the headunit? Or are you certain that it's the headunit, because I'm sure this headunit may be out of warranty. The only way I know of resetting the headunit is the little button on the front of the unit, and that hasn't given me any luck. Right now I have the remote wire disconnected from my amps.

Ill have to check that out soon. Also to clarify my headunit doesnt play music anymore, it won't turn on. It was playing music when the problem started but now the amp light just stays on and the headunit stays off. Can't powerup anything.
