Power connec­
tion issue

• Check the power wiring connections on the wiring harness and power-wire extensions, and 

make sure there is a secure, waterproof connection on all wires.

• Check the connection between the wiring harness and the amplifier, and make sure it is 

seated securely in the port.

• Check the power-wiring connections to the fuse or circuit breaker and to the battery and 

repair or tighten any disconnected or loose wires.

• Check the circuit breaker and reset it if necessary.
• Make sure the supply voltage is within the specified operational range for the amplifier.
• Make sure you are using the appropriate gauge for the length of the power cable run, and 

replace the cable with a thicker gauge, if needed.

Remote turn-
on wire 
connection 
issue

• Check the remote turn-on wire connection to the wiring harnesses on the amplifier and the 

stereo, as well as any wire extensions, and make sure there is a secure, waterproof connec­
tion on all wires.

• Make sure that the stereo and the amplifier are connected to a common power ground.
• If you connected the remote turn-on wire to a switch instead of the stereo, make sure the 

switch is installed correctly.

LED is Green and There is No Sound

Potential Cause

Potential Resolution

Power or volume 
issue

• Make sure the stereo is powered on.
• Make sure the volume is not set too low or muted.

DSP settings 
issue

Check the DSP settings in the Fusion-Link app and make sure the correct speakers, stereo, 
and amplifier are selected.
NOTE: You must select the option in the app to send the DSP settings to the devices after 
you configure the settings.

Signal or speaker 
connection issue

• Check the RCA cable connections to the stereo and the amplifier, and re-connect all 

disconnected cables, if needed.

• Check the speaker wiring connections to the wiring harness on the amplifier and to the 

speakers, as well as any wire extensions, and make sure there is a secure, waterproof 
connection on all wires

• Check the wire gauge used to connect the speakers to the amplifier, and make sure it is 

appropriate for the length of the wire run.
