[QUOTE="djdilliodon!, post: 8845783, member: 684299"] There can be many things that can cause this to happen. The most common imo are a short, to low of an ohm load the amp is seeing, voltage dropping to low, or a faulty amplifier. First thing I would do is check the impedance of all the speakers in the car. Disconnect the speaker wires at the amplifier and check it that way. If the speakers are 4 ohm and it’s not reading close to that, it can be a damaged speaker or something wrong with the wiring.
