Audio Systems: car stereo and amp, rockford fosgate punch, pioneer deh p3600
QuestionI installed a pioneer DEH-P3600 and a Rockford Fosgate Punch 201S which is connected to a RF 10" S/W. It worked great for about 3 weeks. I was messing around with the remote and hit the ATT button. This lowered the volume as expected and when I pressed it again the audio increased as expected. However, it only played through the S/W for about 5 seconds and then the S/W quit working. The main fuse is ggod. I have power to the amp which lights up. I have tried disconnecting power to head unit to reset. I have checked all fuses and connections. Everything looks good just no S/W. All other speakers work. Any suggestions would be great.
AnswerDid you disconnect power to the sub amp in order for it to reset?
Also, check the wiring; sometimes with subs the wiring vibrates loose and the connection is broken at the speaker terminals or at the amp output.
I doubt if the sub shut down is related to the att button. Probably a transient pulse hit it and sent the sub amp into oblivion or overloaded an output stage. A reset might bring it back to life.
Since there is a lamp/light on the amp that is a good sign.
Hopefully you will be able to find the trouble and restore it to full working condition.
Good Luck,
