[QUOTE="rogue9607, post: 8487962, member: 669398"] Hi everyone, I'm new on the boards and am hoping someone can help me diagnose my amp issues. My 97 Camaro was out of service for a couple of years, but I'm getting back to working on it now. During that time, I'd removed my amp and stored it indoors. The amp is an Orion CS500.5 5 channel amp and I've reinstalled it, but it does not power up. I've checked the voltage on the positive/ground lines, checked the fuses (on the amp and the positive line), and the voltage on the remote line. I also tried jumping the remote line from the positive line. During none of this did the power light illuminate. The only thing I noticed was that the red protection light comes on when the remote line has power but the power terminal isn't plugged in (turns off as soon as it's connected). All I can come up with is that the amp is dead, but I'm hoping someone can come up with something I've missed. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
