What is the remote socket on a car audio amplifier used for

You posted this in car amplifiers. I don't know of any car amps that use remotes and certainly there are no universal remote for car audio

Are you using an amplifier? If so, it sounds like you are using the blue wire (power antenna remote turn on) instead of the blue/white (amplifier remote turn on). The power antenna remote turns off when leaving tuner mode.

Are you using an amplifier? If so, you are probably using the blue wire (power antenna remote turn on) instead of the blue/white wire (amplifier remote turn on). The blue wire is turned off when leaving tuner mode, thus turning the amplifier off.

The remote is connected to the remote on the car radio. The same remote is being used by eg the electric antenna. If there's not a remote on the car radio wires, place a switch.

On the amplifier there are three connections that state (+12V) (Remote) (Ground)
the blue cable that you refer to leads from the head unit (cd player) to the (Remote) connection on the amplifier.
I have used quantum audio amplifiers before and although they might not be of the high end section they are reliable, fairly rated on some models and even underated on others and for the price tag, they are well worth owning one.

do you mean the sound turns off when a cd is inserted into the deck? are you running your audio through and amplifier? if you are using an amplifier, you are probably using the blue wire (antenna remote turn on) instead of the blue/white wire (amplifier remoter turn on) to turn the amplifier on. the blue wire turns off when you are not in tuner mode.

neg terminal to ground, positivew terminal to 12volt and jump a wire from posiitve to remote wire on amp to see if it turns on

You will have to call Jensen. They normally don't come with amps anymore as most users prefer the RCA input for better clarity and sound quality.

Sounds like you have the Remote turn on hooked to constant 12V instead of a switched power.
The Blue/White wire off the module should go directly to the amplifier remote terminal.
If this has a constant 12V when the key is off, the module is defective and needs to be repaired/returned.

hi, sounds like u have a problem with the remotebass connection socket. the socket has little pins inside, check to see if they arent touching each other. also try not using the bass control, then try one sub at a time. u may find that one of the subs or sub spk wires cub be faulty. cheers.
