no, the REM lead goes from the back of the HU, the HU REM output, to the amp's REM input. if you hook it up to the battery, the amps will never shut off.

the remote goes to your head unit as a turn on wire.
the 12v on the amp goes the + on the batt. and the grd goes to a ground on the body of the car

idk how you'd fix that. you'd have to pop the unit open and resolder a new wire i guess.

or you can do it like TY said and not worry about the HU.

you can run your rem wire to your positive on your amp and hook a switch up on it so that your amp is not always on.. but you'll have to always switch it on or off manually
