the best thing is to rewire it. it will take you no more than 1hr and you will get it fixed.

it is amplified?

 

where does the power cable run through to the battery? does it get near the clutch mech under bonnet?

[swiftkid 1]

have you ran any cables near the clutch pedal? could it be that the clutch pedal has worn through a wire and by pressing it, its reconnecting it? sounds a very weird problem!

thanks for the replys, wel the live come from the batt straight bak through a unused gromit just under exspantion tank in 2 the top of passenger footwell then runs under the plastic cill at door under bak seat and then in 2my amp. Then the remot wire comes from headunit round past clutch pedal, fuse box, plastic cill at door under back seat and in 2 amp. so i check remot wire and clutch pedal isnt touchen it atall. I pulled al wires out made sure that num o them 2 had bin cut or damaged but everyhing seams fine. I was out in it 2day and now doesnt work atall, i think gona rip it al out and re wire it and hope that work. Where is the clutch mechinizm under hood? I cant c nutton moven just hear it sqeeking ha. Thanks 4 help guys, o ye the earth cable goes 2 a huge bolt in the boot.

Sounds like it has something to do with the remote turn on. Try re-routing it. I've got mine going under the clocks then out the other side of the fuse box.
