[QUOTE="Imperial GOD, post: 4422704, member: 584900"] So I have a JL Prowedge box with 2 12w3v2's and a JL 12w7 in HO Box I also have a Kicker Old School 500 watt amp, and a JL 500/1 amp. Here's the story.... I had the 12w3v2's with a Kicker amp, then upgraded to the JL and the 12w7. Everything worked fine. My amp kept cutting out, and I couldn't figure out why. I finally tore the **** trunk apart and found out the end of the ground wire was disconnected from the piece that I had screwed to the car. I pulled the ground out and disconnected everything. It's now a couple weeks later, and I decided to rehook it up. I took the piece off the car, opened up the clamp with some needlenose pliers and then clamped them back down on the ground. Looks good so far... I then put the amp in the car and connect the positive, I then connected the Positive connection and the remote. I turned on the car and the amp powered on. I hooked up the subs and there is no sound. I then took a RCA to headphone jack and tried my ipod to the amp to see if I could get sound from there. Nothing. so I pulled the remote wire and the amp stayed on..... now that confused me. I then changed the subs, and there still was no sound. I then changed from the JL 500/1 amp to the Kicker amp, same thing with both subs. Now I'm really confused, does anyone know what it could be? Should I change out the Ground wire or do you think both amps are shot? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. [/QUOTE]
