Orion 2500D clicking?

[Big Schill9 10+ year member]

I just installed my refurbished orion 2500d from ikesound this weekend. I didnt have any subs hooked up to it, only power to make sure things worked. It makes a clicking noise, about one per second,and everytime it clicks, my lights dim. This cant be good, can it? I did hook up one of my SE's to it and it only also makes this popping noice, no bass with music. Is there anything I should be doing? Or do I need to get a hold of ikesound it return it. Please let me know asap. Thanks

did you double check your grounds? possible check your rca connection...

how much did they charge u for a refurb?

It clicks without the RCA's even in. And my ground hasnt moved from my last install, so it should be fine. (but I will double check) It cost me 422.95 shipped. but I noticesd the other day that it is 355 plus shipping now. Any other help?

Check the fuses.

both of my Viper 1200's from IkeSound did the same. Bad amp. Send it back.

shouldnt have bought a refurb but since you dide hopefully you got some kind of warranty and Ikesound will honor it. if not it sounds like you may be sol cause you got a bad amp.

you do have (2) 4 guages grounds and (2) 4 guage power wires connected?

 

[Big Schill9 10+ year member]

No, I do not actually...I thought that was for strapping. Can you please elaborate on that?

Check out the manual. You need to have both hooked up for the 2500D.
