I Installed A 12 Inch Eclipse Sub And A Kenwood Amp I Think I Did All The Wiring Right. I Ran The Power Wire From The Battery To The Fuse Then To The Amp. Rca Cable From The Hu To The Amp. Sub To The Amp. But When I Tried It Nothin (no Sound) I Have A Couple Of ?

Where Is The Best Place To Ground The Amp?
In The Radio Harnes Which Color Wire Do I Connect To The Blue Remote Wire To? (i Used A Left Over Power Antenna Wire, Is It Rite?
Why Am I Not Getting Any Power To The Amp

a DMM is your friend. I am willing to bet if you turn the radio on, and not a cd, it will play. the wire you want out of the harness (generally speaking) is a blue with white wire. a lot of civics have a bolt holding in the rear bottom half of the seat. wire brush the paint and primer off, and ground there.

one of the many places to put a a ground would be the nearest is the bolt that holds the seatbelt. make sure your ground is touching bare metal. now for the REM wire there should be blue/white wire coming from the deck and connect it to that. finally double check all of your connections and fuses and go from there.
