great 1 more thing i have to have and fight with the ol lady about...lmao great stuff Steve i cant wait to see what all it does!!
-
i heard and seen nothing but good thing with the massive nano amps & there strapable could go over or under ur buget ....look into them there pretty solid and great for small space's...and sundown is NEVER a bad choice those are beastly amps

thats 1 sweet ride

Happened literally a couple minutes ago, was setting my amp(Audiopipe 1500D), and was playin a song next thing i know, my sub stops hittin, and my amp went into protect, then it would flash power for a second, and actually work, and then back to protect, then power for a sec and so on, thought maybe a wire cam lose on the inside of the box so maybe it was reading a bad load, unplugged it at the terminals, still same thing, turned radio on and off, turn truc on and off, still protect flash of power back to protect. any idea?
could be a nuber of thing first thing i would do is check the ohm load on the sub/subs if they read what they should check your grounds and fuse holders ...i have seen alot of amps cut on and off because of improper grounds or cheap fuses...also try to keep a eye on ur voltage if you get it figured out to where it will play

it is doable but u would have to make sure you got the whole wiring harness and all the computers or you will play hell making it run right. also the bed should bolt on may be a gap but i have seen guys around here with 06 trucks with the 97 bed on it..(ppl crack me up) you may need to measure and move the cab mounts as well ...good luck and if you do it post some pics

http://car-part.com/ i buy alot of used parts there even the harder to find stuff also be sure to check the grade of the part befor you call it will list milage of the part and what it came out/off of
-
check all the grounds ...also the BCM controls all those things actin up the pcm control's the fans my guess would be that when the installed the new computer they programed something wrong....also i looked on alldata and there is a bulletin about corrosion on the the conctoins and lose plugs ...bad thing is that is is located behind the left instrument panel.....good luck man message me if you need any help and i help u as much as i can

mine did the same thing on my honda passport i just spun it around and used 2 nuts to tighten it down .1 to hold it and the other to lock them in place
-
alt is out should be @14 volts running and 12.8 off ...put the car on a batt charger and see if it starts ...when it does pull the postive wire from the batt ...if it dies u need a alt...
-
you have a blown fuse or short some where ....wtf were you doin trying to connect wires? man that i s a good way to screw some1s car up fast!get a schematic of the wireing and fuse points and go from there fisrt thing you do on a cranks but dont start is check fuse's
-
i would agree with every1 else on the neutral safety switch ...if it is not that my next guess would be the ignition switch ...not the key but the wireing that the key makes the connection to

try http://car-part.com/ its where i find all my used parts (if that the route you want to go) if you look you will see you can search by price ,part grade and distace....hope this helps
-
caps are bad...they drawe power more time then they put out...sounds like you have some issues...i would check the alt output (should be 14volts or better runnin) and you bat should set @12.6 -13volts with the car off. do the big three and check all your connections and you should be doin a lil better...good luck man
-
congrats to all the winners!
-
i would check to see if your getting rca out put as well...with you having the remote wire shorted on the ground you could have also damaged the head unit as well...always use the proper size wire....good luck man
-
yes i would def get some extra batts in there...550cca is a small batt to be running big sound on ur amp is gonna take power where ever it can get it ..via the alt or extra batts i would shop around on battery prices i got a sriken 45 amp hour(im sure i spelled it wrong...lol) for $120 something on sonic it made a huge difference before i got a new alt ... it will not solve all your issues but you will be able to beat longer with less voltage drop till you get a alt....

desided to try my hifi 2500 @0.5ohm and t seems to be ok and kinda likes it...lol ran it for 10 mins while tuneing the amp and it got warm but not close to hot...pounded it for another 30 mins or so and it hasnt got hot or shut down yet...of course i have a ok chargeing system tho....i will update if it breaks or shuts down...
-
does it do rate, no. but for the money the powers there. I wired my xl 12 at .5 on my hfi2000 and all I can say was damn! I didnt have it bolted in but im not sure I could bolt it in, it looked like it wanted to fly out(maybe have somthing to fo with my sh!itty box im made)
.And at low volume. Didnt run it long, dont know if the amp was .5 stable. But ive had 2 l7 15s on that amp for a year and its held up. Maybe geti agree it pounded my sundownsa-12"S really nice but as u say it dont do the claimed power
-
i put my mids and hi's amps behind my back seats all the time never have had any issues i even USED to mount my sub amps to the rear seats in my grand am and have not had a issue yet...i do put thick rubber spacers under the amps to get the vibratoin down some and to help them keep cooler
-
depends on the ohm load... i have a daul 1 ohm 18 on my hfi2500 and it gets loud and moves air but its dont seem to be as it should cause i have to run it @ 2ohm instead of 1 ohm...it will give you clean power but i dont think the hfi does there rms power like the older bxi series amps do... what voice coils do you have? and will ur electrical hold up? hifonics WILL snatch 1 volt from a stock chergeing system as soon as you turn it on ...they a re great amps but power hungry just keep that in mindI was wondering if a Hifonics HFi2000D will power a 18" Fi BL?
-
So what's an amp I could get. I don't Iate money for a sundown or rockford so don't even mention them.
lol ...im in the same boat i have run the hifinics amps for @ 4 years and like them alot i would stay away from the hfi and shot for a bxi model ...i have had 5 bxi1608ds and have never had a issue i currently have a hfi2500 it sounds good but dont seem to put out the claimed power...with the bxi i have had scores of low 140s (on 1600 watts rms) and i have got 145.4 with the hfi 2500.1 with x2 sa12's they send out pretty clean power /sound for half the price of sundown amps....scratch that im a dumb ass it just seen u are looking for .5 ohm stable hifonics will get mad and shut off but they love 1 ohm

figured i would add to this questoin on the AQ amps has any1 every had 1 ran 1/2 ohm daily? i have a ascendent audio 18" daul 1...think of getting the AQ but dont know what it would do at that ohm load or how good it would do @2ohms...input on this would be awesome thanks
it can be ran at half ohm without a problem but it'll void the warranty
thanks man

Ive heard people say they have, but i had a 3500.1 and tried to run it at half and it got real warm.figured i would add to this questoin on the AQ amps has any1 every had 1 ran 1/2 ohm daily? i have a ascendent audio 18" daul 1...think of getting the AQ but dont know what it would do at that ohm load or how good it would do @2ohms...input on this would be awesome thanks
thanks

.And at low volume. Didnt run it long, dont know if the amp was .5 stable. But ive had 2 l7 15s on that amp for a year and its held up. Maybe get
Underpowering BTL 15... By alot.
