J00bles Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 (edited) it got warm once this last weekend but had it on loud for a long time trying to get gains right to hopfully fix problem but then tonight on the way home from work it turned off f and when i got home i checked to see if it was warm and it wasn't at all it was still cold check your fusing. i had that same problem with mine tonight. all of my wires and ground are working perfectly, so i checked my fuse. it hadnt blown yet, but it had begun warping from the power it was getting and it was sending my amp into protect. im only running 300rms right now at a 4ohm load.

ben29555 Posted March 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 the fuse on power cable from battery or the fuses on the amp? Quote My Build Log loud bass songs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennett15 Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 check all your fuses look to see if there is any melting or burn marks on them and if it looks to be in any kind of damage replace it. Also if its just melting and changing the coppers colors from heat most likely your running to big of a fuse.

The Performer Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 Sounds like too big of an ohm load to me. Quote CERTIFIED BITCHES!!! Not being new at something doesn't mean anything.

ben29555 Posted March 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 just checked all the fuses they all look like new idk how it could be the ohm load because iv had it for like 4 or 5 months and everyting worked goodd till now Quote My Build Log loud bass songs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd still recommend double checking your ohm loads. Single or dual voice coil subs? What ohm for each coil? What wiring between each coil? What wiring between each sub to amp?

bennett15 Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 another thing it could be is lack of power? check your 12v connection and if you have a dmm check how much power your amp is seeing i know its only 400w but you could have a bad battery connection.

ben29555 Posted March 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 ill have to see if i can barrow one from my friend is it possble that the amp isn't getting proper power becuase the power cable is pinched? becuase i just have it ran through door jam so it might be that the only other ting i can think of?

bennett15 Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 that could be it the insulation could be rubbed off causing the wires to rub on the door and power is being grounded off there or something like that i would check that asap Quote 98 Dodge Durango 12 000K 50/55W Headlights 12 000K 35W Fog lights HU Panasonic CQ-VX100 7" Reciever (1) Fi SSD 18" Fully Loaded (1) Ported box 33hz (1) Soundstream TRX1500D (1) Soundstream TRX2.440 (1) RE 6.5" Component Set (1) Rear battery Big 3 in 0/1 gauge 2 runs of 1/0 Gauge wire 250A Alt soon..
