Sheena Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 what i suggest doing tomorrow, or when you get the time is. taking your DMM (voltage meter) and hook it up to your amps pos and negative. play it at full tilt and watch the voltage.. if your voltage is going up and down like a low rider, you got your answer on what you need to do.. if the voltage is staying steady or above 9.6 volts (where the amp protects at) then it is an issue with: RCA deck (hu) amp wiring Quote 09 Civic EX KDC-X395 (2) SKAR Audio VVX-12 Skar Audio SK-1500.1 4 cu ft @32 (new box and more port soon) Firing Forward not sealed off Stock 80 Amp Alt Big 3 In 1/0 Knu 2 Runs To The Back 1 Pos 1 Neg In 1/0 Knu DD-1'd 13.8v drop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheena Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 sorry for the late reply. well it could mean a few things including a bad ground. could also mean the batt is bad i would do what the other guys are saying, check/redo the ground, sand EVERYTHING off until you hit straight metal and bolt it down Quote 09 Civic EX KDC-X395 (2) SKAR Audio VVX-12 Skar Audio SK-1500.1 4 cu ft @32 (new box and more port soon) Firing Forward not sealed off Stock 80 Amp Alt Big 3 In 1/0 Knu 2 Runs To The Back 1 Pos 1 Neg In 1/0 Knu DD-1'd 13.8v drop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaneBond Posted February 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 update! figured out the problem the ground came loose during the install. the one in the back is good just needed to be tightened up. no more protect mode anymore!
