TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
SYMPTOM – No Power
PROBABLE CAUSE – Check all the ground, B+ and remote terminals
for tight connection.
• Check all fuses.
• Use a Volt/Ohm meter to check all power wire connections to see
if the system is rec12VDC.
SYMPTOM – “Motorboating”: The power indicator going off repeatedly
when the audio system is on.
PROBABLE CAUSE – Check if the crossover power wire is connected
directly to the battery.
• Check the battery voltage; if low, recharge or replace it.
• Check if the crossover has good ground connection (i.e. whether the
ground wire is making good contact with a bare metal spot of the
vehicle chassis).
SYMPTOM – When the engine is running, the audio system has a whining
noise that remains unchanged or disappears with the increase of audio volume.
PROBABLE CAUSE – Check all the power wires to see if they are all
connected directly to the battery.
• Check all the ground connections to the entire system for good contact
with bare metal of the vehicle chassis. Check if the source unit and the
crossover are grounded at the same reference point.
SYMPTOM – Obvious distortion at low volume.
PROBABLE CAUSE – Output level of various channels not compatible,
refer to section titled OUTPUT LEVEL ADJUSTMENT.
SYMPTOM – Overal sound effect good, but bass abnormal (more bass at the
two extreme settings of the balance control thatn at the center setting.
PROBABLE CAUSE – The subwoofers are “outof phase” with each other,
thus canceling the bass when the balance control is at the center posi-
tion. Check the wiring form the amplifier to the subwoofers (positive “+”
to positive “+” and negative ”-” to negative “-”.
