[QUOTE="sin, post: 390268, member: 553127"] Hi There, just having an unusual problem with my remote turn on lead, fans/neons and my amplifier. System: [URL="http://www-personal.monash.edu.au/~mapad3/Shannon/system.gif"]http://www-personal.monash.edu.au/~mapad3/Shannon/system.gif[/URL] please note there ARE fuses everywhere, i jsut forgot to add them. (Please exuse the crude diagram) Problem: Okay, its hard to explain, basically what happens is, in the current configuration (as per diagram), the amplifiers power green light stays on fine and everything works electronically well. The problem is that its dodgy. * The front speakers attached to the amp occasionally cut out (both). However when they cut out, you can get close and hear them JUST working. * The sub goes from loud to quiet, and when its loud it has a really nasty sound coming from it when the sub movement is big. Its really like a crackling sound coming from the sub itself. It still goes well and plays the lows, but this sound is really unhealthy. When the sub cuts out, you can feel it JUST vibrate small. * Rest of system works fine. What i have done: * Checked every speaker lead and terminal to see if any are touching the chassis. * Checked all the power wires to see they are not touching. * The power wires and speaker wires are separated. * Connected the fans directly to the battery to check for current draw problems and interference. Everything is fine. What i have worked out: * When i disconnect the remote turn lead on from the relay, the system operates perfectly without a hitch, sounds great. * When i connect the remote lead again, those nasty sounds from the sub come back but the speakers work for a couple of minutes then cut out. So if you need more information, or can help me out ill be greatly appreciative, Thankyou and best regards James A. [/QUOTE]
