80prs black screen?


Recommended Posts

I've been noticing that my 80prs will get a black screen not too long after I'm playing my music.

Is this an issue anyone else has had? 

 

I thought it the mounting was off but I have brackets on the sides and top, its not moving anywhere.

Went through 3 80prs decks in the blazer. Deck pissed me off for years. 

Did they all have this issue? 

I have it warrantied through some company from amazon, so i could get another. I just don't want to pull it out, send it back, wait a couple weeks or more, just to put it back in and it still happens. 

I really like the HU, don't really want anything else.

That is not normal, UNLESS your bass causes it, in which case I had the same issue.  I put a zip tie around the entire unit to hold the faceplate down firmly.  Now I have no problems.  I cant use CDs now, so I just left my D'Amore test CD in when I ziptied it shut.

I dont use CDs so this is an option. 

Didn't think my bass would be loud enough to cause this tbh.

You can check by simply pushing your faceplate when it blacks out to see if the pressure makes a better connection at the faceplate contacts.

Tried that yesterday and it didn't click back in. Its not falling off or anything, ill put a zip tie on it,. If that doesn't fix it then ill just send it back.

I think swapping it out is a great plan, if you have it warrantied.  Electronics are finnicky sometimes.  All it takes is a minor little flaw on the board or component to make the whole damn thing fucky.

Mine did it for a while too. Stopped doing it one day. Maybe the contacts are a little dirty or something? Try taking a soft bristle brush to the contacts, maybe dust got on them
