Amps are wired with a direct connection to a power bus, and then have an aux turn-on wire to actually power up when the stereo is on. I'd check the wiring of the power/trigger wire on the amp.
Was the system factory installed, or at least by a qualified pro, or was it some kind of DIY 'my buddies friend is really smart' kind of install?
