Rebel4055 Posted October 19, 2010 Report Posted October 19, 2010 i bought it when Best buy was switching over from rockford to kicker (MEH) and it was there display one was never plugged in just bolted to the rack to show people. got it for 130 so IF it is bad then i wont feel bad putting a few bucks in it because websited MSRP is 360. I will bolt it up to my rear strut mount i also think it could be the connection on terminals, it was my first ever solder job so maybe thats bad does anyone have like 7 or 8" of 0 gauge laying around :-))) Make sure when you remove one of the bolts from the strut tower be sure to sand down the area REALLY good before putting the ground there.

Rebel4055 Posted October 19, 2010 Report Posted October 19, 2010 I just read you are getting engine noise? That could be your ground or your RCA's but I do believe it to be the ground so redo that first than we can move onto the RCA's. Quote Rest In Peace mother.

michigancapri92 Posted October 19, 2010 Author Report Posted October 19, 2010 ok so as of right now i think the amp is broke .... i refixed the ground and it still makes the noise ... also what i noticed is that i have my front speakers hooked to front 2 channels and subwoofers hooked up to rear channels ... i put the front RCA into the front RCA jack and i get music coming from the front channels AND the subwoofers .... not subtle but like the subwoofer RCA's are hooked up and there NOT .... what is wrong with that picture ???!?!!!!?!?!?!??!

michigancapri92 Posted October 20, 2010 Author Report Posted October 20, 2010 rewireing the whole car re-routing the RCA's in a different spot going to see if that does anything after that sending amp to rockford fosgate ... really think it is the amp Quote Teamcapri.comThe TeamCapri 1992 Mercury Capri XR22012 FORD EDGE SQ BUILDOld build logMy FeedBack1992 Mercury capri XR2 Hyper LED
Austin Hart Posted October 20, 2010 Report Posted October 20, 2010 Try Grounding the RCA's to the chassis of the headunit... This could help, as well as you may have blown a resistor in the headunit. also, have you tried a different set of RCA's? maybe there is a short in the current ones... Troubleshoot these and see if anything happens. Good luck Quote
