MIKE-2U Posted December 23, 2011 Report Posted December 23, 2011 Ok well when you can take a ddm to the rcas. Play a spng preferably a test tone and take the ddm.to the end of the rcas the inside male end of the rcas is positive the outer meter female looking end is ground and see if your gettin any volts or amps. Then we can istablish if its the rcas and bsck lies the problem or not Quote 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee LaredoPioneer AVH- 3200DVD2/0 Flex-A-Prene Welding Cable (2) Fully Loaded Fi Sp4's dual 1-------> My YouTube Channel <------- Needs more power those woofers will laugh at that turd
Guest Posted December 23, 2011 Report Posted December 23, 2011 Ok well when you can take a ddm to the rcas.

Then we can istablish if its the rcas and bsck lies the problem or not do this and post results. make sure the dmm is on AC volts though. the only other thing i can think of (which is highly unlikely) is that your amp's inputs are bad. i mean, you already tried two different headunits, different rca's, you have power going to the amp, so i honestly cant think of anything else that it could be.

MIKE-2U Posted December 24, 2011 Report Posted December 24, 2011 yes post results, its gotta be either the headunit is bad, outputs not on, wrong outputs or the amp. or sub i guess Quote 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee LaredoPioneer AVH- 3200DVD2/0 Flex-A-Prene Welding Cable (2) Fully Loaded Fi Sp4's dual 1-------> My YouTube Channel <------- Needs more power those woofers will laugh at that turd
TRTC360 Posted December 24, 2011 Report Posted December 24, 2011 are the gains turned up on the amp? just throwing out a possibility, i've seen people do it before (myself) Quote '93 Firebird Formula V8 H/U- Kenwood eXcelon KDC-X395 Mids/Highs Amp- Hifonics ZXI80.4 Wiring-KNU RCA's, Speaker Wire, And Two Runs Of Trystar 1/0 G34 Red Top and a 180amp Ford Alternator www.youtube.com/TRTC360
donovanl12 Posted December 24, 2011 Author Report Posted December 24, 2011 yes post results, its gotta be either the headunit is bad, outputs not on, wrong outputs or the amp. or sub i guess Yeah i just got a new amp a week ago and a new headunit yesterday. It's something with the RCA signal Quote
donovanl12 Posted December 24, 2011 Author Report Posted December 24, 2011 are the gains turned up on the amp? just throwing out a possibility, i've seen people do it before (myself) Haha yeah, I made sure of that one Quote
MIKE-2U Posted December 24, 2011 Report Posted December 24, 2011 so you have a new amb and a new h.u. that YOU ARE SURE are working, ok make sure your headunit sub out but is turned on. and the rca's are good you said ? check your subs for an ohm reading with the ddm. JUST throwing this out there on the amp , you have the rca's going into the input not the output (for slave use) ? check where the rrca's go into the amp Quote 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee LaredoPioneer AVH- 3200DVD2/0 Flex-A-Prene Welding Cable (2) Fully Loaded Fi Sp4's dual 1-------> My YouTube Channel <------- Needs more power those woofers will laugh at that turd

JUST throwing this out there on the amp , you have the rca's going into the input not the output (for slave use) ? check where the rrca's go into the amp Yes my sub is good, I checked it, dual 4 ohm, amp is receiving 2 ohms, I haven't tested the RCAs for power yet, I got home late from work last night and I'm at work again this morning. That's where I think the problem lies, I'm not getting a signal from the headunit. I'll see when I can do it, been pretty busy around the holidays. Thanks for your support everybody! Quote
m&c caraudio Posted December 24, 2011 Report Posted December 24, 2011 Is the sub out on? Switch the rca, s to rear and see if it plays Quote
