ROBERT 04XBLZ Posted April 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 Do you have a digital multimeter so you can check the voltage on the power and remote wire? Did you check your ground? yea everything is good. i had an amp on there to check it and the power and everything is good. hey do you think that maybe car toys would be able to do something? i just dont really want to send it back. arent they suppose to check to see if the amp is good before it leaves the warehouse or whereever it gets built?

If you used a smaller amp, and your power wires arent thick enough, the amp might not be recieving enough power...

Just send it back its really nothing you can do for it you already paid for it and its still under warranty so just send it back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbdblue Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 all ya gotta do is get a hold of a DMM and check that its recieving at least 12 volts like they said above...then you can be sure that its the amp.
