The negative(-) wire should be run to the ground(black) wire on the back of the deck also.

DONT power the amp off the deck unless you wanna blow the fuses in the dash of burn up the stock wireing. ruan the amp its own power wire on one side if the car. ground it to the frame. and run th rcas on the other side or the middle of the car. then hook it up. red power to + black ground to - red rca to red rca and white rca to white rca(same on deck)
