FroznBeavrBALLs Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Ok so i went to wire my 2 D1 lvl 4s to my 1.2k amp today and i had my gains set right and everything. Wired them in series/parrael down to 1ohm. And i went to test them and nothing. The amp is on(not in protect). So i checked everything out and realized that when i turn the HU volume up high (like 50-62) i can hear the subs but they arent playing very loud at all. like 10 watts loud... So i used a DMM to check what im reading on my box terminals and i have 1 ohm there and at my amp. I checked the POWER and GROUND on the amp and was reading 14 volts resting. So while everything was wired up i played music and checked the voltage going to the subs, and it as reading practically 0. So the subs arent getting any power. I checked all of the fuses and non are blown. I mean, all of the doors play the music just not the subs. Im guessing its the RCAs or my HU but i dont know how to see. Has anyone had this problem or can anyone help me out with the troubleshooting to figure out whats wrong?

FroznBeavrBALLs Posted January 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Rca's are connected.....right? haha yes. When i plugged them in i accidentally had my car running and it did that pop sound. But is was really low. like not loud at all. And i knew that sound was not good but because it was so quite it wouldnt mess anything up. But my friend says he thinks that when i did that i blew the Fuse in the HU for the RCAs.... but idk. 2 DC 12" lvl 4s 1 DC 1.2k XS Power S3400 big 3 Alll KNU wire Pioneer HU cheapo Legacy coaxes (just for now) http://www.stevemead...n-sentra-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team_DC-Derrick Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 try your other RCA outs, you could have fried that RCA connectors, so take the mids and highs RCAs and plug them into the sub RCA and see if that fixes it, if so, your sub RCA connectors are fucked, and you can use your mids and highs RCA output The DC Integra 3 18s to 6 15 build log Team_DC-Derrick's Youtube Team DC Audio where theres a will theres a wall.......

HatersGonnaHate Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Check the head unit and the fuses. And swap the rca's and see if that's the problem.

carshateme Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Yeah, my friends Pioneer HU did that. We don't know how it happened...guess it was a fault fuse, just returned it and got a new one. New build coming soon.
