Sub Problem

spanky1224 · 07-03-2008, 12:11 AM

Well I was crusing down the road with windows up subs low...and they went out...Cries....Thought it was fuse block. Just had not put a big fuse block in. SO i switched it out. I have a kenwood 650 amp and 2 10 inch kickers. The amp light wont turn on and no subs playing...I have a like 4 gage power wire i think...should i go bigger. Any ideas of whats wrong. All connections are tight.

recheck the fuse again, and make sure the remote wire is securely attached

check your power wire start to finish, and check your grounds, and you're remote. possibly fuses...

that wouldn't BLOW your amp. and you should have put down some dielectric grease or at the very least some vaseline to prevent rust and promote quality connection
