Question Amp won't turn on?

I got my aftermarket cd player Pioneer DEH-P3000IB to turn on no problem but my amp won't turn on. I have it grounded to a bolt on the side of the trunk the only thing I can think of is the remote wire must be wrong?

The wiring harness kit I bought was METRA 70-2104. I connected the amp blue wire turn on to the blue wire on the METRA 70-2104 harness. Was I supposed to connect it to something else?

Help want to get this working tonight.

connect a wire from your REM to + on the amp terminals and see if the amp turns on.. If it doesn't your fuse is blown or amp is shot. If it turns on its defiantly the REM.. could be hooked to the wrong wire on the radio..

Had the remote wire hooked up to the wrong blue wire I guess. I just ripped it all apart and tried the other blue wire and it works. WOO . Finally have some thump again. I'll post pics later.
