[QUOTE="riffyb, post: 4703763, member: 583180"] The other night I was moving a few things and needed to take my sub out of the car. So I did and When I went to put it back in. I noticed the pos and neg wires had touched. It looked like they were melted together slightly. I called up a few places and they said the amp could be fried or the wire could be burnt thru. So I replaced the speaker wire from the amp to the speaker. No sound. The amp is a jl 500.1. Its not in any protective modes. Thermal, or low ohms. Its lit green. So I swapped the speaker wire. No luck. I swapped the amp for a MA audio one. To trouble shoot. Still no sound from the sub. I am thinking maybe something may have happened to the sub when moving it out of the car. I dont have an extra sub to test it with till tomorrow so I would have to wait. Anyone know what the problem may be? Im guessing it cant be the sub because It was fine when I took it out. After I put it back in thats when It stopped. Changed out 2 amps but still nothing. This ever happen to any one? Also its a JL w7 sub. Anyone know how to take it out of the JL HO box? I cant seem to find any of the screws. thanks again for your help everyone. [/QUOTE]
