Subs turn on for about 5 seconds when i start my car sometimes

[ath562]

So alittle bit about what im working with, I have a 2013 Dodge Avenger SXT with Kicker CompR 12's + a Kicker 2400w amp installed at Best Buy a few months ago. My in dash is a Uconnect also if that helps.

So anywho, Sometimes when i start my car, my subs will go off really hard for about 5 seconds, then everything is normal. This doesn't happen everytime, but for some reason I feel like it happens a little bit more often when its cold out. Im not sure if its the wiring, or i heard maybe the amp is turning on before the car is or something like that, not sure. So im just curious what you guys think about this or if you know how to stop this. Thanks for reading!

Do you have a remote wire going to the amp or are you using the automatic on with a signal?

This happened to me when my alternator was spiking voltages, so I would maybe check the voltage at the amp/battery when you turn it on to see if it is spiking.

Take it back to best buy n tellem they f***** ur **** up n have them deal with this? That's what I'd do but your voltage/altanator is probably the problem that's a lot of amp for stock electrical.
