TROUBLESHOOTING

Before removing your amplifier, refer to the list below and follow the suggested procedures. Always test the speakers and their wires first.

AMPLIFIER WILL NOT POWER UP

• Check for a good ground connection.
• Check that the remote DC terminal has at least 10V DC.
• Check that there is battery power on the + terminal.
• Check all FUSES.
• Check that the protection LED is not lit. If it is lit, shut off the amplifier briefly and then repower it.

HIGH HISS OR ENGINE NOISE (ALTERNATOR WHINE) IN SPEAKERS

• Disconnect all RCA inputs to the amplifier. If the hiss or noise disappears, gradually reconnect each component driving the amplifier and unplug its inputs until the faulty or noisy component is identified. It’s advisable to set the amplifier input level as insensitive as possible to achieve the best subjective signal-to-noise ratio (S/N). Try to drive the highest possible signal level from the head unit.

PROTECTION LED COMES ON WHEN THE AMPLIFIER IS POWERED UP

• Check for shorts on speaker leads.
• Check that the volume control on the head unit is turned down low.
• Remove speaker leads and reset the amplifier. If the protection LED still comes on, then the amplifier is faulty.
• The amplifier will shut down automatically when the unit’s temperature reaches 85°C. This protects the unit from damage.

AMPLIFIER GETS VERY HOT

• Check that the minimum speaker impedance for that model is correct.
• Check for speaker shorts.
• Check that there is good airflow around the amplifier. In some applications, an external cooling fan may be required.

DISTORTED SOUND

• Check that the level control is set to match the signal level of the head unit.
• Check that all crossover frequencies have been properly set.
• Check for shorts on the speaker leads.

HIGH SQUEAL NOISE FROM SPEAKERS

• This is always caused by poorly grounded RCA patch cord.

WARNING

1. An overly high volume will damage your speakers.
2. Be cautious when you use the amplifier near gasoline tanks and electric wires.
3. Protect the connecting wires and parts to avoid any damage or short circuit.
4. The power must be supplied from the anode of the battery via FUSE.
5. The sound system must be in turning-off situation when you check the amplifier.
6. Be sure that you use the same type of FUSE when you need to replace it.
