Nakulah Posted December 9, 2020 Report Share Posted December 9, 2020 Hi, I just got the dd1 and cc1, dd1 worked flawlessly. I am running a sundown salt-4, with an alpine UTE-62BT which claims 4v rca. I have followed the steps word for word, and cannot get the signal LED to illuminate, I start with HU volume at 0, and you can barely see the power LED, and as I turn up the volume, the power LED get brighter and brighter, but even with HU maxed out(no distortion at max), bass knob maxed, no signal LED. I have tried reading from speaker outputs, with negative on battery ground, negative to speaker output negative. I tried using the RCA outputs of the amp. I have tried using a USB and bluetooth to play the tracks. I think maybe the headunit just doesn't put out a strong enough signal, as my gains are set to like 70-80% at -5 gain overlap. Brand new knukonceptz rca's run to the amp as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nakulah Posted December 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2020 LPF is all the way up(250hz), and HPF is all the way down (10hz) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nakulah Posted December 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2020 I'm going to go check how much voltage is coming from rca's at the back of HU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nakulah Posted December 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2020 with head unit maxed, playing track 14 from cc1 disc A(63hz )I got 2v from front left channel, 2v from rear left channel, and 0.37v from left sub channel... I'm gonna re wire the amp to the rear channel instead of sub, reset gains, and then try again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nakulah Posted December 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2020 Salt-4 now connected to rear channel of headunit instead of sub, gains are now set to about 1/4 instead of 3/4, (using DD1) Tried using the cc1, and same exact problem as before, no signal light.

Nakulah Posted December 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2020 Tried it out on 2 home audio amps, still nothing, I'm starting to think I might have a defective unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dafaseles Posted December 9, 2020 Report Share Posted December 9, 2020 This might sound stupid, but I've seen this work with other problem posts with the CC1 and DD1, put a brand new Energizer battery in it. For some reason, even sometimes people using them for the first time send having issues, they change the battery to a good, brand new, name brand, strong battery, and it works. If that doesn't work, yeah I'd contact WCC Audio Quote 2011 Chevy Silverado under construction My build log here. Check it out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
