    Amp not powering up

    It was a tester that came with my RKE/auto starter, pretty sure they wouldn't include it if it wasn't safe to use on vehicles. This one just had alligator clips for + and - then a probe that would either turn it green or red for - or +. I just clipped the alligators to my ground and power then...

    Amp not powering up

    System was working, suddenly stopped. With one of my amps I am getting protection light, the other two will have power light on but no sound. Only one amp at a time in my truck, now with all three if I jump the power to the remote with original remote connected it will turn on, but won't turn on...
