amp protection problem

[NhustlaR 10+ year member]

MA audio HK1000d will work, but when the power wire is left in it for a period of time (overnight) it will go into protection and you need to drain the power from it to get out of protection. meaning you need to take out the power wire and let the remote stay on until the LED's go out.

Once you hook it back up it powers without a problem.... any suggestions?

I'm runnin it @ 2 ohms 500 rms(rated) its running 2 L7's. 4gauge from batt. to 2nd battery(paralell), then 8 gauge to the amp. also 8 gauge ground. 16 gauge remote wire...help anyone?

That's very odd. I have never heard of having to "drain" an amp before it will work properly.

The amp does turn off when you turn your ignition off, right? Where is your remote wire ran to..HU or fusebox?

Have you tried hooking another amp up in it's place? Same results? Do you still have warranty on the amp?
