heh what does it mean when you say this. im not the smartest when it comes to sound setups.

 

There's a small-gauge wire that goes from the radio to the amp, and turns the amp on when the radio is on. Hence, the name "turn-on-lead".

Also, check your fuse for continuity with a meter. The filament in fuses are just spot-welded in there, and I've seen plenty of those spot welds break, rendering the fuse useless, although it still "looks" good...
