Where is the remote turn on going? To the HU? Maybe wrong wire? Does the remote turn on switch anything else? They can only handle 250-500ma.
Here is a test to rule out HU switching or remote turn on wire.
GLook at your amp, You have the 12+/REM/Ground terminals. Take your meter, read across 12+ and the Ground terminals you should have around 12volts with car on or off, well on maybe 13.8-14.2.
After checking that, take a jumper wire, and jump REM terminal to 12+ terminal (no this won't damage anything) if the amp turns on and stays on, you have a remote turn on problem. If it still does the same thing you have a main power problem either ground or supply wire from battery. If all that is good, then you have bum amps, which doesn't sound right if you tested a few already.
Also disconnect any speakers or RCA going into it first. Maybe the sub is shorted. Also disconnect remote turn on wire before doing jump test.
