Do you need to hook up the remote wire on your car amp?
Yes a remote wire is necessary. You must wire the remote wire from the amp to and ignition source of power (a component which turns on when the ignition in the car is engaged.) i.e. the radio. The remote wire signals for the amp to power on.
What do you do with the CD player remote wire?
The Remote wire is for the installation of an amplifier. When you install the amp, you have a power (+12V) and ground wire to power the amp, but if you did not have a remote wire, it would drain all of your battery power while you were away from the car (because it would continually suck energy from it); however, without the remote signal coming from the CD player, the amp does not turn on. Does that answer your question? Basically, unless you're installing an amp, don't mess with it.

Your amplifier should(hopefully) have an input for a "remote turn on" or some words to that effect.

Extend it to the "remote turn on" on the amp and you should be good!

It runs from your deck to the amplifier. When the deck turns on, it sends a low voltage signal to the amp to let the amp know to turn on.

So, simple answer, it turns your amp on when the stereo comes on.

Where do you attach the remote wire to your car stereo?
The remote wire coming out of your car stereo constantly sends a low voltage signal while the stereo is turned on. This is to signal external components such as amplifiers or power antenae to activate. If you don't have these items, the remote wire should be taped off as to not ground out on anything. IF you were wondering where to run the remote wire from your amplifier to a stereo that does not have a remote wire, I would suggest sistering it to the hot wire (red) coming out of the stereo. Make sure that your radio doesn't function without the ignition turned on. If your radio works without the key in the ignition and you have your remote wire from your amp wired to the hot wire on your deck your amp will remain on all of the time wether you're in the car or not. This will lead to a dead battery. Hope this helps Shane (vmax33)
