Symptom 

Possible Remedy 

Amplifier 
will not 
power up 

Check to make sure you have a good ground connection. 
Check that there is battery power on the (+)terminal . 
Check all fuses, replace if necessary . 

Make sure that the Protection LED is not illuminated.   

Protection 
LED Comes on   
 

Check for short circuits on speaker leads. 
Check the speaker load not beyond the minimum load. 
Remove speaker lead, and reset the amplifier. If the protection LED still 

Comes on, then the amplifier is faulty and needs servicing . 

No output 

Check that the RCA audio cables are plugged into the proper inputs. 
Check all speakers wiring. 

Check the headunit output and the amplifier level setting. 

Low output   

Reset the level Control. 
Check the Crossover Control settings. 

High hiss in 
The speakers 

Check the RCA cable is not shorted to power ground at amplifier side. 
Check the amplifier grounding. 

 

Distorted sound 

Check that the Input level control is set to match the signal level of the head 

unit. Always try to set the Input level as low as possible. 
Check that all crossover frequencies are properly set. 
Check for short circuits on the speaker leads. 

Amplifier gets 
Very hot 

Check that the minimum load impedance for the amplifier model is correct. 
Check  that  there  is  good  air  circulation  around  the  amplifier.  In  some 
applications, It may be necessary to add an external cooling fan.
