how did he hook up the amp? splicing the speaker wire to the amp? go out and get a cheap 50 dollar cd player so you can run rca's instead this should do your trick. if not tell him to down grade the power wire.

For the connecting reconnecting of the speaker, the problem should be that the wires are not properly attached, it may be possible that the amp shuts down because of the short occurring. For the memory problem, you have to reconnect the wiring. The power wires are 3. battery wire - is the yellow wire on an aftermarket head unit, is connected to the wire that has 12v at all times even when the car is turned off. this is the wire that holds the memory for the radio. switchable source wire - is the red one and is the one that has 12 v only when the car key ignition is turned to on, do this after identifying the battery wire. ground wire - is the black one and is connected to the ground wire of the car, or simply to any clean metal part of the chassis. for the wiring codes of your car go here: http://www.installdr.com/Harnesses/Ford-Wiring.pdf
