Get a bit of wire and bridge from the amps 12v+ input to the remote terminal. If the amp switches on it's a headunit problem.

If it doesn't, it's an amp problem or the new wiring.
Those that can, do; and those that can't, talk about it.

Right your best bet is to re-do the earth cable from the amp to the car, sand as much of the paint off as possible and then come back :)
