How to test an amp?

Im looking for an easy way to test and amp. i have it all hooked up ion the car, and i know thw poer works and everything is setup correctly, but i might have torn the remote wire. is there anyway to make antoher remote wrie just to test to see if the amp even works before i start tearing the car apart? Can i get like a 12v battery and hook a wire to it and send a change to the remote? any suggestions woudl be great

Thanks.

Just disconnect the remote wire that is curently attached to the amp and connect it to +12 V. You should already have 12 V powering your amp, so just connect that to your remote input too and the amp should be forever turned on untill you remove it.
