Well the amp was in my buddies truck for 3 days and he said that it never quit on him once for the time it was in there. So it would either be the head unit or the sub. I doubt that it is the sub since the amp is under powered for the sub so i cant blow it. And it still hits hard.

audioholic nice write up that was great information!

Checked this morning Fuses = good The power leads go from my battery terminals through a fuse to my amp. Also, since I just took my battery out of my truck I did clean the terminals and wires that attach to them to ensure a good connection. The power for my radio is just off the stock harness...

So the sub has never been dropped and has yet to leave its box except for 4 days ago when i checked to make sure no wires were loose in its 2.5 years in my truck. Amp has never left my truck since install not even unplugged therefore i would have noticed crappy sound quality if it was shorted...

Well first its only been installed once from brand new. Second and not to sound like an jerk but i am quite knowledgeable with electronics. I know I did not short out the amp during install. What I would like to know is can I test the amp of input signal from the head unit?

So here's my update. Its still doing it. Battery tested and came back as good. Alternator tested and came back as good. Amp light will remain on when sub stops hitting or looses power. Another suggestions?

well i know its not a bad ground for either. Especially for my amp since its under my seat belt bolt. If that was rotted I would prolly notice quickly. I just cleaned off my battery terminals and still have the same problem.

First, I know it isn't that since while on the highway with my engine at 3000rpm it still does it and at that point the system is almost on all alternator. Second the battery is new as of beginning of last winter (and i always buy the biggest one I can) and i got a 150amp alternator (2 years...

Hey guys, I'm new to the forum and need some help. I have searched many places for my problem either no one has had it before or I'm searching the wrong things. Anyways while driving or stopped at a light my sub will be at full power then decrease to less than half and come back almost...
