thayl0 Posted July 9, 2014 Report Posted July 9, 2014 My amp went into protection mode because one of the fuses blew. I change it and it still in protection mode does that mean the amp is history.
GSanders17 Posted July 9, 2014 Report Posted July 9, 2014 Disconnect everything except power ground and remote and see if it still jumps straight into protection. If it does verify proper voltage with a dmm and if it's good the amp is done. Depending on which model it may be worth sending it off for repair.
Deeznutz Posted July 13, 2014 Report Posted July 13, 2014 Which model amp? What were you doing when it blew? increasing the gain? playing a low song to loud? Showing it a load lower than allowable? I had an old school 16ST-1500D, that thing pounded but would go into protection when the bass hit low and motor at idle. I had to raise the rpms so my high output alternator could feed the amp what it needed. You may have fried your amp. I accidentally fried my Crossfire VR602 yesterday because I ran 2 12's at 1 ohm vs the 4 ohm that the amp is supposed to see. I had them on a JL 1000.1 at 1 ohm. My mistake.
