[QUOTE="winkychevelle, post: 8654951, member: 611804"] The issue I see here is that the speakers are being driven by an amp not the headunit. This leads me to believe the the headunit is not going into protect because of a short at the speaker. Reason being is that the amp would protect first and shut off. This guides us to looking at the signal feed. The connections at the line out converter need to be solid. Loose wires ****. Then we need to look at the rca wires running from the loc to the amp. A short here could be the problem Easiest is to make sure the RCA are tight on the amp and the lock. I recently had an rca pull off of an amp due to a bad bump. It cause similar issues. You can check the amp and door speakers simply by moving the rca cables around 1 at a time on the amp. Finally make sure everything is grounded nice and tight. It's crazy what a bad ground can do sometimes [/QUOTE]
