Troubleshooting 

This section provides basic Christie Vive Audio CDA2/CDA3 Professional Power Amplifiers troubleshooting 
information. 

         Do not service the amplifier yourself. Contact a qualified service technician. 

 

Problem 

Resolution 

The amplifier power will not turn 

on. 

 

Verify that the amplifier is receiving power. Plug the amplifier into the 

AC mains. Connect the IEC line cord to the AC power inlet on the rear 

panel of the amplifier. 

 

Verify that the circuit breaker for the mains circuit is open. Reset the 

circuit breaker, then turn the amplifier power on again. If the AC mains 

breaker continues to open, check the voltage and amperage (d) of the 

circuit. 

 

Verify that the circuit breaker has the correct voltage and amperage 

(d). If required, have a qualified electrician replace the circuit breaker. 

If the circuit breaker continues to open, send the amplifier to an 

authorized service center for repair. 

The amplifier power is on, but 

there is no sound from the 

loudspeakers. 

 

Check the amplifier indicators: 

 

If the ACTIVE indicators are lit for each channel, verify that the 

amplifier is receiving power. See 

The amplifier power will not turn 

on. 

on page 13. 

 

If the SIG (signal) indicators are lit or blinking, check the level of 

the input signal source. 

 

If the TEMP (temperature) indicators are lit for either channel, the 

amplifier has overheated and idled one or both channels. See 

The 

amplifier is overheating. 

on page 14. 

 

If the DC (direct current) indicators are lit for either channel, an 

abnormal condition exists within the amplifier or the load it is 

driving. If the channel does not reset and the DC indicators remain 

lit, send the amplifier to an authorized service center for repair. 

 

Check the amplifier mode: 

 

If the amplifier is in PARALLEL or BRIDGE mode and the input signal 

is connected to CH B, connect the input signal is CH A. See 

Input 

Connections 

on page 8. 

 

If the amplifier is in BRIDGE mode and the output connections is 

made to CH A or CH B, use the center BRIDGE output connector to 

connect the loudspeaker. See 

Bridge Mode Connections 

on page 

11. 

 

Verify that the attenuators on the front panel are turned up. Turn the 

attenuators up until you hear output from the loudspeakers. 

 

Check all connections between the amplifier and loudspeakers. Make 

sure that the twist lock connectors are fully-inserted and seated. The 

connectors must be inserted and turned 1/4” clockwise until they lock 

in position. If screw terminal connections are used at the loudspeaker 

inputs, make sure the cables are attached and do not cause a short 

between the poles of the loudspeaker inputs. 

 

Inspect the loudspeaker cables and repair any shorts or breaks in the 

cables, or replace the cables. 

 

Inspect all loudspeaker cable connection terminations to make sure
