Cox Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 check fuses, wires, grounds, speaker wires, so on and so on. Quote Kenwood Excelon x396AQ2200Fi Q 12XS D3400 XS XP30001/0 RADAFLEXStinger volt meter Mechman 240a alt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcnash71 Posted August 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 Well i checked all of that, the only thing left is the sub itself or the amp just isnt pushing any signal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ncochran Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 Hook the amp to another speaker (turn amp down first depending on power handling). If it plays, your sub is bad. If it doesn't your amp is bad (assuming you checked all fuses/connections) Or you could hook the sub up to your home stereo or even the deck in your car to see if the sub works. Your car deck won't exactly flex it, but you should be able to tell whether or not it is playing.

kandiman71874 Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 why go through all of that when he can just ohm test the terminals first to check coils?

kandiman71874 Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 if its a cheaper prefab box, make sure the wires havent come off of the terminal cup that the sub is hooked to for your amp wires to hook to too.

STEALTH808 Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 (edited) cant he just ohm test at the teminal cup? 2 birds, 1 stone.

kandiman71874 Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 Let me draw a map for those that cant apply some common sense. Check outside the box at the terminal cup if there is one. If no reading is present, then check it at the sub while checking the wires at the same time making sure none of them have come loose or have a connection problem...

jcnash71 Posted August 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 So if no reading and sub is basically "bad" what would sundown do if it is still under warranty, if anyone knows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Hammer Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 Unless it was a manufacture defect it probably is not under warranty, if the sub is bad you will need a recone, I suggest buying a basket too for a few bicks extra and it makes the process easier.
