Kjbulldog Posted November 16, 2010 Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 Mine just started doing the same thing...sometimes it works fine, sometimes it sounds really distorted and sometimes there no output at all, and other times there is no output. The whole time the power light stays on but when it sounds distorted the protection light blinks. i figured it was a ground or rca problem but i checked both with no luck. Was your protection light coming on while it was doing this too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It cut off some time to time and also get distorted but the distortion goes away after a few seconds... But i'm upgrading to the SAZ 1500 now.

If he thinks his does a 167, mine would probably put him in a coma. :hairtrick: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaM Customs aka mprete Posted December 9, 2010 Report Share Posted December 9, 2010 did you check all the wires to the subs before you disconnected them? that sounds like a loose wire.

I already tried hooking it up to the left + - side of the amp and im only getting about a quarter power.. same goes on the right side of the - + right side of the amp terminal....
