OrionStang Posted December 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 OK it is not the relay. Im going to try jumping the remote off the 12+ like Ray said, that will tell me if its remote wire or amp.

C-Fizzy Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 If it happens repetitively every 1 or 2 minutes, take a volt meter and place it on every part of the power wire. At the amp, before the fuse, after the fuse, at the battery terminal, etc and just watch the meter as it happens. I had the same thing happen to me and it turns out my voltage after my main fuse block was like 3 volts. My fuse had blown but it wasn't blown all the way so I still got enough power to turn my amp on but not enough to put out any power. under construction I hate People with crappy primered cars rolling on hubcaps that are louder then me. u hate c-fizzy?

OrionStang Posted December 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 Is this the 200.4 again?... Nope sold that. But it is a BNIB 125.2. Fucking Sundown. Put your remote to straight 12 Report back Going out to try it now. If it happens repetitively every 1 or 2 minutes, take a volt meter and place it on every part of the power wire.

Ill recheck the fuses. SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrionStang Posted December 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 Does the same thing with the jumper. Voltage at the amp is 14.25 and does not drop when it cuts out. Has to be the amp right? SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDrifter Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 Where's your volt meter reading from? Amp or battery? Hook it up to the amp. Might be a loose connection somewhere that is intermittently breaking contact ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrionStang Posted December 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 I just used my dmm all along the power wire. Read my post just before yours. SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDrifter Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 I'm thinking if it happens really fast, it might be too instantaneous for your volt meter to read Try wiggling stuff around and see if that does it ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kickass audio Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 can you check the voltage of your remote wire just for a test? also play a test tone so that way your voltage is a steady level and test the rca's, output terminal voltage on the amps channels. Maybe by chance it could be something with the gain where the knob itself is bad. My old amp had a problem where if i turned it to one spot it would make the volume go up and down, also my 3sixty.2 remote knobs do the same damn thing and it pisses me off. lol. Try checking the voltage for any fluctuations like that in the rca's and amp output as well as your remote turn on wire while playing a test tone, do not do this on music as the voltage changes too fast with music. edit: i do agree with what snowdrifer said about your dmm not being able to pick up the glitch that fast. sometimes something fast like an o-scope can help, idk if you have one to look at the graph because the refresh rate on the scope is higher than the dmm and you can see little glitches in the power on them. 2004 GMC Envoy1 XS power S3400 batt under the hood and 4 XS Power D3100's battery installed in the rear by the amps0 gauge power wire from front to backAlpine iva-w205 touchscreen dvd/cd/mp3/ipod/am/fm/gps headunitSundown Audio SAX-200.4 amp for my mids and highs8 gauge speaker wire from amp to woofer270 amp Mechman AltRockford Fosgate T1652-s component speakersRockford Fosgate 3Sixty.2 sound processorRca's from Rockford Fosgate and Monster Cable14 gauge speaker wire for the mids and highs1 18" Ascendant Audio SMD Dual 1 ohm with custom Black & Blue carbon fiber and hand signed dustcapBox: 5.66 cubic feet net volume box tuned to 30.13Hz with 1.5" wide wooden dowels and 1.5" thick baffle1 DC Audio 5.0k amp wired to .5 ohms nominal with an imp rise of 1.35 ohms for the single AA SMD 18"Future Vision 8000k 50w bi-xenon projector HID's with 4300k 35w fog lightsLink to my build: Buildupdates/progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
