Problem With Kicker SX 900.2. HELP PLZ!!

[walkychalky 10+ year member]

So yesterday i installed my kicker sx 900.2 that i bought from another member on the forum. I received the amp probably about a month ago but between work and school i didn't have time to install it until yesterday. So after i got it all wired up i turned on my hu and i am getting very little output with my hu volume on max and the gain on the amp at max. My hu is a premier 880prs. any ideas on what the issue could be? Also, i am getting alot of engine noise coming through the speakers? My RCA's are ran down the opposite side of the car from my power wires. Could my RCA's be bad? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Thats one thing it could be, maybe swap out RCAs? Still, maybe check your grounds on the amp and HU, see if that helps. Strange, you should be getting plenty of signal from the Pioneer to run that amp without having to max out the volume or gain.

did you get the owners manual with it because the SX amps you have to go into the setup mode and set the gain range not just turn the gain itself all the way up. it wont help if you have the gain range set at 1v and the gain all the way up when it should be at 2-4v.
