Is there any voltage on the rem wire at the amp?

Check it with a multi-meter...

If there wasn't it wouldn't say there was power going to it?

Check the main 12v power to the amp, the earth is good and the remote lead is carrying a 12v current.

If all three of these checks are ok, then the amp is at fault.

Please post a photo of the power side of the amp, so I can see how you've wired it.
