there should be 3 power related cables connected to the amplifier:
1-From battery to amp via fuse (positive)
2-From chassis of car to amplifier (negative)
3-From head units (power continuous) (blue or blue/white cable) to the amplifiers remote connection.
this connection enables the amplifier to switch on when the head unit is switched on and off when the headunit is switched off.
I hope this helps and let me know if I can further assist you.

Did you try checking all of the fuses in the car? Generally there is a fuse box under the hood in the engine compartment and another in the car, usually under the dash or in a kick panel.
probably shorted out the deck but try different deck if that works then your old deck is shot but i have had amps do the same thing and i just changed the ground on it and they still work fine
i think that the red wire is the acc wire but im not 100% on that because you havenot witten what model the radio is
anyways if it is the acc wire then connect that to a 12volt supply and see if it turns on all other wires must be connected though ecept for the blue wire which i think is the remote wire for a amplifier
Easiest way is hooking up temporarily another speaker, one that you know that works, to isolate the problem, either on the cable, or the speaker itself. Just connect it in parallel to the door´s speaker terminal, it wont hurt the head unit. If you still get no sound, make sure the head unit is not damaged for the left side. if there is sound at the headunit, you will have to rewire.
Yes!!!!!!!!!! Your remote wire is what tells your amplifier to turn on and off it won't work without it. Assuming your stereo headunit is an after market unit it has the correct wire for this. what you have to do is pull out you headunit, and in the back of the headunit where all the wires plug into your unit there is blue wire with a white stripe. this is the remote turn on wire. connect a wire to that blue n white wire and run it back to your amp, insert it into to the spot marked remote. turn your head unit on and your amp will power up... if you have all the rca cables hooked up your amp should be ready to go.... btw good choice on the amp, kenwood is the way to go!
Sounds like a short circuit, check all connections and check that it will work as set up. Some will only work as a mono(i.e. you use 1 caannel not a combination of both) could also be a loose connection.Also if the head unit is off, the amp for the sub should be off. Is the amp wired to permanant live? If so this will cause this. Wire to electric aerial switch on head unit.( there will be a live wire and a switch wire on amp).
I have the same HU and the same processor as you. First I only used the chinch cables to the processor, and from the changer.
The improvements you make; your headunit DAC and your chancher DAC wil not be used anymore. The differens; normal with a cd you convert a digitalsignal into analoge, in the HU or changer, and then you make it digital again in the processor, en put the signal analoge into your amp.
The advantage is; the processor uses the famous Burr Brown DACs and that is know by its good sound processing.
