OK Heres the problem. I recently installed my amp and speakers in my CSVT and came across a problem. The amp is a Xtant 404m and the speakers are JL W-3's 12 inch. I ran all the wires and as soon as I hooked up the power wire a small amount of smoke came out...which cant be good.... The amp was already grounded. And since then the red light has been on every time I start the car to see if it works. There are 3 lights, green, orange, red. No other lights come on. The fuse in tghe power wire is fine(30amp). So I decided to take the cover off the amp and found 2 small resistors that looked burned...Numbers R19 and R20 next to them on the board. Can these be fixed?? And am I right on guessing that those are whats causing no amp and red light??? Any help would be great guys!!!

 
Edit:

Just found out that the red LED means power to the amp.....So now I have power but no sound, could those resistors be effecting the sound???

 
if they are burned and you smell them and they are. you can either send the amp in for service from wereever you bought it or call mitek (xtant) and see what they can do. you might be able to replace them but if your not good with a soldering iron i would not suggest it

Thanks.....Now I am just wondering why they blew...

I will be calling a local guy tomorrow for fix.
