Finding ground for the Amp

I'm having trouble finding ground for my amp in the CL-S. I mounted close to the spare tire. But it still humms when the stereo is off. I don't know why. Please help.

Thanks

Did you sand the surface to the bare metal? I have a 8 gauge ground, close to the amp as possible. I don't know why it would hum with the stereo off.

Perhaps your amp is not shutting off. Make sure you have the remote wire from the head unit hooked up correctly.

Check your RCAs......

I had to actually change one of my RCA cables in my old car because of a broken cable.
