Ok, so i got my motor replaced last week, every thing was fine when i got the car back. Then today, im out driving around and put one of my cd's on. Usually this cd has alot of bass and you can rattel the windows of the celi easily with my sub. But sub wasnt pounding. So i went into the back seat, folded the back down, checked my amp. Amp isnt turned on. So i figured they probably blew a fuse when they were puttin every thing back together. So i poped the hood to check, nope..fuse still in tact. This amp is pretty new, i bought it used off my sis' ex who barely drove his car. Any idea of what could be causing my amp not to turn on. Also the connection to the battery is fine.

i think it's your remote wire, they could of stretched it out and severed a connection somewhere in the middle. just do this quick test-take a peice of wire(about the same gauge of the remote) and wire it on the amp like this-one side to remote and then the other side to power(+) basically creating a direct feed. if the amp turns on then it's your remote wire, if not i would try a new ground because i had the same problem at one point.
side note: make sure when you do the direct feed that you take out the main fuse on your positive wire so you avoid blowing it and put it back in when you're ready to test. once everything is in place the amp should be on without the key, if not try your ground like i said above. hope this made sense and was helpful. sorry if it didn't make sense. -------------------- |
