    All your amps and the capacitor should turn off when the car is off. The is a 'remote turn on' cable on each amp/capacitor, usually between the power and ground cables, this should be hooked up to a accessory wire or the accessory cable on the back of the H/U if using an aftermarket H/U. This wire tells the amps and the capacitor to turn on.
