VIDEO: Help, Amp Won't Turn On.

[hmong337 10+ year member]

Amp is working fine. I verified this by using a computer PSU to turn it on and power some subs.

In the car, not so much. But all my wires are tight and fuses look beautiful.

-power cable to amp (good)

-power inline fuse (good)

-ground to amp (good)

-remote + RCA (good)

NO DICE.

It was working fine one day... then a few days later, doesn't work anymore.

I'm all out of ideas... Even tried another amp to verify everything.

I've tested with two different RCA cables.

Two different remote wires.

Checked and RECHECKED fuses over and over.

Any suggestions?

Weird thing...

I asked a co-worker if I can swap my amp into his car to see if it works. It doesn't turn on. But yet it runs fine with a crummy computer PSU?!

Help... I'm totally lost.

By experience...:

1) The Remote Wire on your HU is Dead...

( Just to test - Attach a wire to a Fuse in the car that turns on with your car ( or any fuse that gives 12v ) and connect is in your Remote Slot on your amp - so if it turns on then... )

But it didn't turn on in my co-workers car also...?
