I have a JL 500/1 it's been cutting out a little the last day or two then yesterday it just quit working. Fuse is good, no lights on the amp, all wires hooked up. Any ideas, is my amp toast?

Could also be speaker wiring or even the sub itself.

check voltage at the amp and also check your ground

I just ran into work to grab the DMM and check it out. The fuse looks good by the battery but there is no power at the amp. Well no lights lit up on the amp. I'm going to check voltage in a minute, hopefully it's just a ground!

Could be a ground or remote issue.

is your remote wire putting out 12v?

Ok I followed everything with my DMM and it was a bad fuse at the battery. It's the round glass style which I don't like and when looking at it the fuse looked good but wouldn't ohm out. Popped a new fuse in and I'm back in business!! Thanks for the help!
