First, turn off the power to the consumer unit by switching off the main circuit breaker. Once the power is disconnected, carefully remove the cover of the consumer unit. Locate the faulty wire and disconnect it from the terminal. Replace it with a new wire of the same type and gauge, making sure it is securely connected to the terminal. Finally, put the cover back on the consumer unit and restore the power.

Why does an amplifier not working unless a battery wire is touching the remote wire on the amplifier?

Either your remote wire from you head unit to your amp is broken or not connected properly, you don't have a remote wire, or your head unit is faulty. Try another piece of cable as your remote wire from your head unit, and if it still does not work, your head unit is faulty. To save buying a new HU, you could wire the remote wire to your accessories, but be cautious as you could flatten your battery quickly if wiring incorrectly.

Why might the fuel gauge not work on a 1994 Dodge Dakota?

Either the gauge is faulty, there is a broken or shorted wire between the gauge and the sending unit or the sending unit is faulty. Hopefully, it's not the sending unit; That's integrated with the fuel pump module inside the fuel tank and to replace it means replacing the entire fuel pump module. Not a fun chore, and requires the removal of either the fuel tank or the truck box (take your pick, one method is about as much work as the other).
