The actual aerial normally a single plug with a pointy end on it which plugs into the back of the radio.If the 2 leads red and green are separate wires they sound like the power to release the aerial for semi auto pop up aerial or motor drive if it has motor attached.Depending on your radio the aerial will operate when turned on ,if not then for radio aerial with motor you will have to fit a 2 way switch
Amplifier Goes into protected mode when I connect the rca
jacks.
The wiring is bad on the plugs and shorting out, or whatever is on the end of the cable has an issue. Also look along the cable for rodent, cat, dog chewing.
Questions like this need 'make model (what is is) of every item involved. On a vehicle 'year make model' as well.
The bad ground causes the amplifier to go into the protect mode. So, make sure to check the grounding wire and overall connection to figure it out and set back the amplifier to its normal mode.

MY AMPLIFIER DOESNT SWITCH ON BUT I CAN SEE THE RED LIGHTS
first check all the power connections verify every thing is hooked up correctly. check the fuses. and the amp has to have a separate wire called remote going to the back of the head unit. the head unit sends a signal to the amp to tell it to turn on when the head unit is powered on.
