• The fuse may be blown

because the volume was too
high.

The input sensitivity adjusting
control is not set to the correct
position.

• The speakers cable are

connected with wrong 

+

-

polarity.

• A speaker cable is pinched by a

screw in the car body.

• The switches may be set

improperly.

• Connect the input (or output)

cables.

• Check the connection referring

to "Sigma servo feed back".

• Check connections by referring

to "Power indicator".

• Replace the fuse with a new

fuse and use a lower volume.

Adjust the control correctly
referring to "Controls".

• Connect them properly checking

the 

+
