Chris Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 Can you post a pic of how it is wired? or for that matter, a whole bunch of pics. The only thing I can see in my head that may be a problem is that your subs could be wired at an unstable ohm load. (so low in fact, that it immediately shuts the amp down.)

sean 371 Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 The ground should be hooked up before you turn it on...

Kicker Guy Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 I thought he meant the battery ground.... now i wonder which one he is tallking about Quote Head Unit: Pioneer DEH-P6000UB Sub Amp:American Bass VFL 500.1 Subs: 4 Fi BL 18's Enclosure:21.5 Cubic foot flat wall tuned to 40 hz Batteries: 3 Kinetik 2400's in the back, Kinetik 1200 under hood.

sean 371 Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 I thought he meant the battery ground.... now i wonder which one he is tallking about all grounds should be connected before you start turning stuff on.

Chris Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 But if they aren't connected, then you cant turn anything on...

DaCarter7500Watts Posted March 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2007 It's a 94 oldsmobile 88 I have no pics right now but all I can tell u is that the amp is suppose to be stable down to 1 ohm and when I hooked it up I hooked up the hot wire first(red one) before I hooked up the ground so ure saying I should hook up the ground first then the hot wire to get my amp to turn on? I have a 140 amp fuse n between my power wire from the battery.I have another 40 amp in the amp,wired the remote wire directly to the hot wire so the amp will always stay on even if the car is off,grounded to the chassis behind car jack,ran (2)dvc 4ohm 12"subs in parallel to drop to 1ohm using 12gauge wire so that the amp gets 1 ohm.I hoped that helped since I dont have any pics.
