battery light came on, ??? Options

[Cormudgen]

Ok,

earlier today i was workin in my car with my amp. stuipd me, was messing with the connection of the REM wire (remote to turn the amp on) at the amp end with the car on. the other side is into the drivers side fuse box labled "ignition". anyways i try canking my car and it wont, so i look and of course the fuse is burnt. replace it and everything is fine. not to long after this my battery light comes on(right next to where the brake light is when you ebrake is on). i dont konw if its related or not. does this mean that my alternator may not be putting out enough amperage? is my battery dying? what does this dummy light signify?

thanks for any and all help

ok well your amp is staying on all the time because the circuit is never closing

sounds like you need a switch

once you get the switch

run your power wire from the + on the battery to the 12 volt input on the amp

then get another wire like 12 guage and cut into your battery wire and loop that smaller wire around it and tape it real good.

then run the small wire back to your switch on one end of it. then run a third and final wire back to the remote input on your amp

oh also just remembered I have a switch panel that I want to get rid of.

it fits in your dash just like a cd player too.

thats what i used it for till i got a cd player that has a remote output on it. whenever the cd player turns on so does the amp and when it shuts off so does the amp
