I'm having a problem where every once in a while I get no audio upon starting my car. If I restart it then I'll have audio. Audio never cuts out while driving. I got stuck while troubleshooting, so heres my current situation:
My setup is as follows.
Pioneer head unit > Audiocontrol DQDX > 5 Channel amp > All speakers and subs
Everything is lit up and powered on when this happens, so loss of power is not the problem.
I figured an easy way to rule out the head unit was to wait for the problem to occur and then turn the input gain up on the DQDX and see if I can get the Maximized Input light to come on, which would tell me if my head unit is sending a signal or not.
The problem is that I got the opposite of what I wanted to see: the Maximized Input light is actually solid orange no matter how much I turn the input gain down. (When the audio is working fine, this light stays green until I turn the head unit to max, when it then starts flickering orange.)
I cant find anything about a solid orange input light on the DQDX. Hoping someone here knows more about this kind of setup than I do. Thanks in advance.
