Dont be stupid and run it to a fuse. Like others said on here you must run the remote wire from the head unit, which is blue with a white stripe, to the remote turn on lead on the amp. That is the professional way to run a remote wire. If you do it any other way that would just be plain ghetto. If you have it hooked up correctly the amp will turn off. Good luck and please don't run it the ghetto way you wont fry your head unit
