Wiring problem... Im stumped


Recommended Posts

well i only have 1 set on the back of my radio and no mids and highs amp yet. But im starting to thing my HU is the one that is F-ed up.

edit: idk how its messed up though...

pioneer with only 1 set of RCA outs? or just 1 sub out? whats the model number?

you should have

3 Sets of outputs (front and rear/subwoofer

its ok to use front or rear

Your right i didnt realize it.

This is the model number. DEH-3350UB

So should i try putting them in the other inputs on the Radio?

I'd try the other rca outs personally, just to see if its an amp problem or rca or h/u acting up. Power off during the swap of course.

Well i just went down to check and My radio only has 1 set of inputs in the back of it. Im uploading pics right now. but yeah. It looks the same as the one i put the model number up there for but i guess its not the same. Might be an older model even though this Radio is not that old. And i did try both sets of RCA inputs on the amp. i didnt think it would do anything; and it didnt.

Also i tried to check the voltage at the RCAs in the back but i wasnt sure how to do that. I put the Pos leed on the stem of one and the neg leed on the surrounding part of the same one and read nothing while the car was on...

you have a mono amp. it only has one set of RCA inputs and probably has one set of outputs. wiring an input signal to the output side on the amp is a bad thing to do.

how did you set your gains? if we can confirm you did it correctly then the problem had to have happened between the time you tuned it, and when you hooked up your subs.

If I answered you in a well mannered, informative way, you asked a good question or had a good attitude. If I was an asshole, you asked a stupid question or you had a fucktard attitude... or I was in a bad mood.

I used my DD-1 to set my gains.

plug the RCAs into the output connections of the amp?????? are you kidding me?

try grounding the outside of the RCA connector to a screw on the HU. it could be that you popped the fuse inside the HU. the fuse is connected to the ground in pioneer units so doing this would just bypass that fuse. and it wont hurt anything if it isnt the problem. only do it on the HU side.
