Looks like you have made a wiring error.

Try a search on here, it's apparently a common thing with even the standard head units.

Turn it off when u get out of the car?
Mines wired to a constant power too, it's not that hard

just thought id say found out the problem after an extensive investigation, it was the battery lead for the amp hitting the remote cable causing it to turn on. just had to clean up the wiring a tad and seams all good so far.
