Having a few issues with my install today.
I had noticed that every now and again my AMP would go into protect mode. This would happen at most once every couple of months and would last for 30’s when it would come back on as normal. I assumed it was all down to playing ACDC a bit to loud for the system causing the issue.
Anyway, today on my way to work the AMP cut out but this time did not come back on. I turned the unit off and waited till I got to the work car park to check it. Sure enough the AMP has the red protect light on. I checked the remote wire at the head unit (as I had the glove box out yesterday to change the blower motor which the cable passes right by) and all seemed fine. I checked the terminal at the batter and again all seems fine (glass fuse all sound etc). I checked what I could of the wiring at the AMP but as it has a protective case it was hard to feel the wires behind until I get this removed.
So tonight I will empty the car and spend a bit more time trying to sort it.
Things I am going to check….
EARTH: I am going to check the connection of the earth cable to the body making sure it is clear and well fixed
AMP wiring: I am going to check the AMP wiring is all secure and has not come loose
Behind the glove box: I will take this out to double check I have not damaged anything behind the glove box (wiring being kinked / broken etc)
SUB: I am going to check the terminals at the sub in case these have come loose etc
What else should I be checking folks?
