[QUOTE="Trancer, post: 7515412, member: 544448"] The Protect Mode light could mean alot of things. It means its having to go into protect mode because something is triggering it; protecting it from burning up. So yes, ground could be one of many possibilities along with voltage drop, ohm load is too low, etc... as already mentioned. From reading your post, it sounds like you are running a 4 channel amp for your subs and your speakers. Do you have the speakers on channel one and two and the subs on channel 3 and 4 or do you have them together? That amp is barely going to push your sub that is rated for 300 watts rms. Your amp only does half that power bridged or you may just be giving it 75 watts from one channel. The model number you gave is for a single 4 ohm sub, meaning you can only run it at 4 ohm, so there is no need to check out the12volt.com for wiring options.
