Now here's my concern... the subs should be in no way connected to the radio constant. The remote turn on for the sub should be connected to accessory power or the deck's remote turn on output. If you wire the remote turn on to constant, then your amp will always be on.
Reread your post and apparently you grounded the white/blue wire when pulling the radio or putting it back in.
RCA's don't turn on amps. They only provide the sound signal. If your amp doesn't turn on, you're not getting power to the remote turn on wire (usually an 18 gauge blue wire), or you don't have power (check fuse on amp power wire) or ground to the amp.

Hey thanks for the help, I'll look into it immediately. I'm sure I'll end up re -wiring the whole system, since it looks like whoever did it was under the influence of hallucinagenics(spelling?)... The only reason we were checking the RCA's was because the amp does'nt have a light or indicator to show if the power is on or not. Since we were getting sound out of the other speakers, we were curious if it was even hooked up to the head unit in the first place. The amp is probably a piece of junk and long since burned out anyway. Everyones info and input is welcome and greatly appreciated, I can't stress this enough.
