Okay.

Are there schematics available?

If they can't help you at diyaudio forum, which it looks like Perry has been trying to, might not be much more you can do. Schematics are likely not going to be available, you'd have to contact Taramps, which they will likely say no. Perry has an amazing knowledge of repair / amps and such, if he can't help you, probably no one can. Best bet for diy amp repair is over here: https://www.diyaudio.com/community/forums/car-audio.38/

Appreciate the response, he has been a great help. I was hoping I could come up with a schematic for it though so I would have a better idea of what I was working on. I've never worked on car amps before. Only experience I have is on guitar/bass/p.a. amps.

Perry has an incredible knowledge of amp design / repair. I’ve been a member over there since 2007 and like I said, if anyone can try to walk you through a repair, it is him, but you have to follow whatever he asks, and do so clearly. If he asks for voltages on specific IC’s, transistors, diodes, etc., don’t stray off track, best to answer just with what he asks so he can try to narrow down the problem for you. Some amps are rather difficult on occasion and or overwhelming, make matters worse is, that is a modern very big amp to dive into car amp repair on. Try not to get ahead of yourself and go slowly. Good luck with it.
