[QUOTE="Bluebullet1004, post: 8249015, member: 660467"] Can an oxidized power and ground wire cause an amp to turn on but not play sound? Because the amp I have hooked up right now, the light indicating that the amp is on is on and the protection light is not but I'm not getting any sound or anything going to any of the two speakers or subwoofer that's hooked up. I have troubleshot the problem down to where it has to be something in the power, ground, or remote wires. Could it be that the amp is getting power, just not enough power to actually do anything? Or that it's grounded but just not well enough because of oxidation or some other situation? [/QUOTE]
