I called audioque up and got the directions in case if anyone is interested. 1) Bass knob mounted 2) Go to amp turn gain all the way down. 3) Subsonic and Low Pass 6 o'clock. 4) Bass Boost all the way down. 5) Kenwood/deck set everything to 0. (will sound bland) 6) Turn volume up to 3...

I'm terrible at car audio. Anyway it was hooked up before to this sub... then one of the transitors or w/e blew and I send the amp to audioque. They sent me the fixed amp back. I hook everything up and now it's going into power mode but my sub isn't playing. I have 1 SSA Icon 15. Ground goes to...

When you say sub unhooked... that means the + and - cords are not plugged in correct? I have not, I will try that though. The guy at bestbuy checked voltage, he scrapped the paint in my car and grounded it to somewhere else. It consistently read 12, rather than before which read 10 and then...

Alright I'll wait for AQ to call me back. Basically what happens when I start the car is that the protect goes on, then the green light power goes on, then it goes back into protect and it stays in protect. All in less than a second.

Hmm. None of the fuses are blown so he was saying there has to be a fuse inside the amp that is blown or something. WTH why is it not going in power mode, instead of protect? Would taking a video of my sub/amp and posting it help?

**** just took it to a BestBuy and the guy who's been working in car audio for years... worked at Car Toys prior, said he did everything and it has to be something wrong with the amp. I told him how I tried to wire my power and ground cable. I didn't use a fuse for the power, he said that may...

Is it like a popping behind the sub? Like the sub isn't moving but it's farting? I'm getting that quite often now. Can't wait until I wire my NEW ground and power cables. I'm hoping that will fix the issue. (My old ones were not the correct gauge)

Alright so it happened again when I my subs were hitting hard. I left my car on checked the amp, light was green, no protect mode. Touched my amp and the wires, nothing was hot. It was cold. Looked at my subs and the sub wasn't moving, but you could hear my sub doing something. So I get close...

Perfect

Also, I think the same issue happened on my old amp. Eventually, my subs stopped playing. Then I got my new amp, problem happened every now and then. Then I got my new sub, and problem happened once. (Just hooked it up today) So yea I'm hoping it's the wiring. EDIT: The BestBuy guy did not put...

The amp??? Man, this amp is new! The amp never gets hot. Hmm but you guys are saying to take it to an actual audio shop like Quality Auto Sound. :/ They are a bit more expensive. @Bobfig word on the "not CCA". I just purchased this on Amazon...

I have the same issue bro! This happened to me on 2 amps and on 2 subs, same wiring. So it has to be the wiring. The guy said it must be the power cable in my case. I'm about to buy a new ground and power cable and just put those in. Hopefully it fixes them. (I'll let you know once I take it...

Appropriate fuse? I just have the ones that came with my amp. (AQ1200D)

@West I would rather go with amazon tbh. They're just well known and trusted. Do you happen to know if the link I provided would be what I'm looking for?

I was sitting 5 feet away from him and came to look over his shoulder too, the whole time he was working on it. Also, is this what I'm looking for? http://www.amazon.com/Bright-2-AWG6-6-Foot-Professional-Inverter/dp/B003AOC0HE/ref=sr_1_5?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1327625849&sr=1-5
