Well I'm up and running again. I hit the reset button on my deck and it's fine.

I meant the faceplate, sorry.

As for the remote wire all I know is I just took out a Pioneer deck that the previous owner installed, and put in my clarion, he also had all the amp wires already run. When I did this the wiring harness for the Pioneer did not match up to the clarion so I cut the wires I needed them to and connected them to the Clarions harness. For the remote wire, I took the blue remote wire from the Pioneer harness (which had the amp already spliced into it) and connected it to the remote wire on the Clarion's harness. There was also a seperate remote wire to amp from the Clarion harness but I didn't bother with it since this setup was working before.

So should I go connect this to the amp remote, it won't take long. What is the difference?
