Well if it turns on after a while.... then just wait a bit.

Turn on your car, open the trunk, look at the amp powering the sub, check for the protection LED (if your amp does it that way) to switch to 'On'. What sort of amp do you have?

more details details!

I know mine always takes about 5-8 seconds to switch on right after i turn the car on.

Check both ends of your ground, remote turn on, and power wire/fuse holder. It could also be the amp itself or the deck itself. Next time it cuts out, check the amp and see if it's still lit up or not.
