if it usually didn't do that then I might start checking something that might be loose like the ground, the the RCA's even the remote wire. have you tried it with the car on

then thats the problem, obviously something is not connected right.

I love troubleshooting be cautious though. I would start with the easiest thing to get to like the amp then the sub(maybe when you put the sub in the wire going across the voice coils might be touching something) then the HU

try it again with the gain level all the way down. See if it still does the same thing.

if i leave the bass knob all the way down it does not do it when i turn the music up .it only does it when i turn the bass knob up
