TROUBLESHOOTING

NO POWER

Use a multimeter to measure the voltage on the +12V terminal and the remote signal termi-
nal. Use a multimeter to make sure that you have a negative ground connection. Check the 

built-in fuse (if there’s one) on the amplifier. If there’s no power coming through – Control 
the power cable’s fuse, if it is intact - make a full check of the wiring to ensure cable integ- 

rity. When all of the above has been tested/looked over, and all is as it should be but there’s 
still no power coming through to the amplifier, consult your local GAS AUDIO POWER dealer.

UNWANTED NOISE

Check your negative grounding point and make sure that the surface is clean (consult the 
HOW TO instructions). Make sure that your signal cables or speaker cables are not too close 

to the power cables. Look over your wiring so there’s no damage or connection issue.

DISTORTION

Check the speaker cables to make sure that the polarity isn’t reversed on one channel. 

Check the settings on the amplifier, make sure that the level/gain is set according to the 

instructions. Lower/turn off bass EQ function on the amplifier if used. Check subwoofers.

NO SOUND

Check your head unit to make sure no settings are limiting the amplifier functions. Check all 
signal cables. Check all speaker cables. Check all speakers. When all of the above has been 

tested/looked over, and all is as it should be but there’s still no sound, consult your local GAS 
AUDIO POWER dealer.

PROTECTION

Check all speakers and make sure that no leads or voice coils are damaged. Make sure all 

connections are made as they should be and that no leads touch the amplifier chassis. 

The  amplifier  will  go  into  protection  if  it’s  overheated.  As  soon  as  the  normal  operating 
temperature  is  back  it  will  automatically  turn  back  on.  To  prevent  the  amplifier  from 

overheating, make sure to follow the HOW TO installation instructions and leave enough 
space around the amplifier so that the airflow is optimized. 

The protection mode is activated if the impedance load’s lower than the amplifier limita

-

tions. If the input voltage is lower or higher than the amplifier limited range the amplifier will 

go into protection. When all of the above has been tested/looked over, and all is as it should 
be but the amplifier is still in protection mode, consult your local GAS AUDIO POWER dealer.
