i was actually referring more to the tinsel leads. the multimeter was a reference. i'm having a problem with something in my system and i'm trying to find out what it is. Also, there is no reading when i touch the leads of the multimeter to the voice coil.

Refering to what exactly with the leads?

 

[amedeuce 10+ year member]

Do both side read Relatively the same?

if your sticking the leads of the DMM to the coil through the holes in motor, you will have to give it a real good hard push, dont worry about hurting or puncturing the voice coil, the only thing that can damage it is a clipped signal and its glued in there //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

okay, i was just touching them. Are the leads not supposed to be touching the spider? on my last sub the leads were woven through the spider, is that just to reduce tinsel slap?

EDIT- i got a signal from the VC but it was all over the place. I have no idea what is wrong

FI does not weave their tinsel leads, they use that pc of felt in case there is tinsel slap.

It's not going to give a steady reading. Were ya pushing on the cone?

so by all accounts the sub is good?

Yah, sounds fine. The DMM will move around on the coil reading.

I believe he's troubleshooting why there is no output on the sub, another thread.
