jeyrapboy Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 OK so I just got my system in my s10 Friday night. Monday on the way home from work I had my system about half my normal listening volume. All of sudden it was quite, figured it was a fuse. I get home checked my 300 under the Hood and the 3 45s at the amp and they all look good. Ground is to straight frame and clean as a whistle Pulled the amp cover thinking it was something inside and I find nothing looking abnormal Any ideas on what it could be let me know Amp is a Re xt4000D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

summah boy Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 take out wires in amp reput them back in if the light has ever flicked its probably your ground just wiggle your cable around thats connected to the chassis see if the light flickers another thing is check the remote turn on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeyrapboy Posted April 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Yea it went into protect, I turned off the truck when I got home. Left for the store, it played another couple minutes and now it just goes into protect as soon as the ignition comes on. I pulled the speaker wire thinking it might have been a impedance issue, Still no luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zack_e89 Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Maybe your amp is getting low voltage for some reason? Quote 97 Suburban 8 custom PSI Platform 3 18's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n8ball2013 Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Its protecting because of low voltage or load more than likely. if it comes out thats a good thing. What are you running with it and what load.

jeyrapboy Posted April 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 It's a older double slug SSD 12 wired to 1 ohm Ill put my meter on it and see what the voltage is at the amp when I get home, I'll also test the load on the sub just to eliminate it.
