Your 'VAN' may not have electrical problems but sounds as though your audio install has some flaws... I seen this happen already... Fuse block (with 12v current) got crushed behind the seat and was exposed... When the seat fold back the block touched the body of the car and everything smoked...

With the case of your amp... Check back the wiring of your entire system... Take out the amp and check to see if any outputs blow (which im sure they are)... and carry the amp by a reputable repair guy who will use genuine parts instead of replacement... That usually causes the amp to burn again and again... Also check for cold solder...

something similar to this happened to me already, and i had the same smoke, blinking deck etc as the burning "jumped" to the remote wire. you should def check your amp/deck wiring

I think the power wire too small
