Having Electrical Issues...

Recommended Posts

could it be the remote wire? i just checked all the amp connections and the remote was really loose. i took some pictures but just with my cell phone and ill upload them later cause i have to run.

Well was the loose remote wire the problem or is the system still causing problems. Im thinking you have a loose power or ground wire somewhere cause I had this problem when one of my connections became loose on my epic-160 one day and on my equalizer another day. make sure every connection is tight.

It Very Well Could Be The Turn On Lead, That Was One Of The Areas I Was Trying o Address.

Thankfully For Me My Knukonceptz RCA's Already Have Them Integrated In So I Don't Have To Run Remote Turn On Leads.

Check Your Electrical Grounds Too, Not Just The Amp Grounds. All The Power Hookups, Connectors, Everything.

If A Shop Wired The Sub Up Too, Check And See If It's Polarity Is Reversed Or It's Wired Wrong, It Sounds Crazy But That Could Be The Problem Too.

If You Had A Digital Multimeter This Would Be So Damn Easy, But You Don't.

When And If You Get One, I Recommend A Fluke.
