AMPLIFIER FUSE KEEPS BLOWING?

 

1)

 Incorrect 

wiring or short circuit: Using your DMM, make sure 

that all voltage polarities are correct, Review section 

(Installation) for proper wire connection. 

2)

 Amplifier 

being driven too hard: Turn down the volume. Gain or 

Bass Boost not properly set, Review section (Tuning) 

for setting the Gain and Bass Boost properly. 

3)

 

Under-sized or faulty fuse installed: Replace the fuse 

with a fuse of the same rating in accordance with the 

manufacturer’s suggestion.

WHINING NOISE WHEN ENGINE IS ON?

 

1)

 RCA 

cables too close to power wire: Separate RCA and 

power cables, Run an extra set of RCAs on the 

outside of the vehicle, and if noise is eliminated you 

might need a better shielded RCA cable. 

2)

 Ground 

loop problem: Re-Ground the amplifier to a more 

electrically conductive location, Re-Ground the stereo 

head unit to a more electrically conductive location, 

Re-ground the amplifier to a point of the vehicle that 

is secure and not thin metal, Make sure that bare 

metal is in contact with the connector. 

3)

 Induced 

noise: Relocate components away from electrical 

noise sources such as engine control computers and 

ABS brake control modules.

AMPLIFIER SHUTS DOWN AFTER PLAYING FOR 

A PERIOD OF TIME? 1) 

Thermal protection circuits 

are shutting the amplifier off: Check the location for 

adequate ventilation (Relocate amplifier if necessary), 

Impedance may be too low and over heating the 

amplifier.
