properly grounded? make sure gains + bass boost arnt maxed out... after you check that and its still not working then you got yourself a $400 paperweight

time for repairs //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

how would the gain and stuff cause the protect light to come on? its grounded good

anybody?

um well if gain is 100% then i dont think any amp would last to long without going into protect

gain is used to match the voltage to the headunits pre-out voltage ... if you have gain to 100% then its assuming that your headunit voltage is like .0002 when in reality its usually much higher (2 volt for example from my headunit)

well the amp protect light comes on as soon as it powers up along with the power light

have you checked the gains to make sure there all the way down??? and its still going into protect ?

if the awnser is yes then your amp is broken , it must be repaired , simple as that!

If gain was set to low and had high number on HU preout could this cause amp to get hot???

Send it to memphis they back their products unless YOU trashed it.

I think its the power supply cuz i had a memphis pop the speakers when it went into protect mode. Your looking at 200 dollar repair though
