[QUOTE="edzy, post: 5423627, member: 573836"] how is your ground? use the dmm on ohm setting and see what the ground wire when disconnected from the amp reads. (make sure to disconnect neg battery cable when installing any power wires. You should have a reading of close to zero. Also the subs coils will fluxuate due the slight movment of the cone. To rule out the amp. Use a small jumper wire and jump the remote terminal on the amp to the amps +. This will elimate the rem as a source of trouble. Next remove amp and and use small pieces of wire, (with a fuse on the pos) and run it directly to the battery. Now you should only be using small pieces of wire so you can see the wiring, like 4'-5'. Now if the amp stays on, and voltage stays up ~14 or so, then connect the rcas to it. If it stays on, connect the subs. if it stays on, rewire the power/ground/rcas/rem in your car. If it fails when just power/ground/rem jump/ then its the amp. [/QUOTE]
