confusing ohm load??


Recommended Posts

ok so im doing a rebuild...and i pulled my Level 5s out tonight...and checked the ohm loads just to check...well on one sub one coil reads the normal 2 ohm and the other reads 0 no matter what...and on the other sub it reads 2 ohm on one coil and 4 on the other....WTF...im wondering of the one has a totally dead coil and whats up w the other to be seeing a 4??? they play fine...i just blasted them today before i took them out and they were good...should i just do fresh recones?

its just weird

Pics or it didn't happen. Also, try a different DMM. It might be the issue. The weirdest things break in car audio.

Good luck, Choded One.

wtf is lolcats?

I'd def get a fat hooker if i had to resort to that kinda thing. I feel like they'd be grateful and work harder. Also its more bang for my buck, more real estate for my dollar if you catch my drift. its like the Costco of streetwalkers.

I was hoping for 150 :(.

I was hoping she would let me put it in her butt

push on the cone see if the resistance moves on the one reading 0 me thinks you need recones.

I've see it happen on cheap woofers before. A dual 8 ohm pyramid and it was measureing 16 ohms anyway I messed with it and yes it was a Dual voice coil woofer and its twin measured propperly and let me get 4 ohm or 16 ohms.

Weird shit but its the nature of the beast.

check the ohm load on the tinsel leads not the terminals. I had the same problem and the terminals needed re-soldered.

i checked the leads on the one that read 0 and it still read 0 til i moved the cone a little...i will check the other one that read 4 ohm...ill most likely do a recone...theres def something going on since my score has dropped a whole db from the last time i metered..
