reinstalling system
decided to put the system back in until somone buys it...i know what it looked like set up, and i tried to do it myself, but the power was not getting to the sub...the amp power light is on, so i know that works, but the sub is just not working

Ok first power wire goes to the amp not sub. The big power wire goes to the power terminal. The wire attached to the chassis of the car is ground and the little one from the readio is remote.
The amp should have th + speaker wire and the negative speaker wire going to the sub.
If you don't hear anything. Power off the system and check the amps onboard fuse, if it has one, and make sure its not blown also insure that amps speaker wires are hooked up correctly to the sub and not shorting out to each other.

no no, i understand all the wires except the ones going to the sub...theres a row of 4 terminals that are copper and 4 that are silver...
although you may be right about the fuse, ill check that out

Hoe many subs do you have?
Are they DVCs?
What are the amp/amps?

judging by your reaction, im gonna assume i said that wrong..its like....4 places where you can put the sub wire....4 copper on top, 4 silver on bottom....im assuming this will help? oh and what would a blown fuse look like

you mentioned 4 sets of terminals in 2 rows, where are they?
DVC is dual vioce coil. It mena the sub has 2 sets of terminals not just 1 pair.
Basicly with one sub you should just have 1 wire from the amp + to the sub + and one from the amp - to the subs -.

Not really. The fuse under the hood inline with the power wire is what protects the amp. The fuse on an amp is for the speaker wires most of the time. SO it can blow and the amp will still turn on but not putout any signal.
