[QUOTE="zane, post: 9713, member: 540617"] Firstly, I hope you are turning off the HU when you leave the car, not doing this can cause damage to the circuitry inside by having that start up "jolt" of energy. When you first start your car- voltage surges through your cars electrical system rapidly, making voltage spikes more likely. Fuses are designed to gaurd against this, however, this is also why ASE reccomends shutting off all accessories when you leave your vehicle. Not only for that reason, also for the extra tax they place on the starting and charging systems on start up- demanding current instantaniously. This can lead to premature alternator,regulator, starter failure. Anyway---> The sound not being there right away could easily be a protection feature on the HU itself. RF as well as Panasonic among a few others do include this on several of thier HU's. I would also look at the remote wiring- you said you have two remote wires going from each amp- this could cause current flow problems- Try re-wiring your remote to a relay that has 3 output terminals, 1 for each amp and 1 for the fan. This should cure the problem. Take it easy, -zane [/QUOTE]
