blown amp??? HELP!!!!!

[leegreenvtr]

i think my amp has blown. the light is off plus the sub doesnt work.

Is my amp dead or could it be something like a fuse needs changing. maybe the one by the car battery.

Not really to sure about this stuff so i might be talking crap

Any help would be appreciated

cheers

could be fuses, earth cable, remote wire

[Johnno]

check all over the wires and fuses.

check the remote wire first mate, prob that!

[leegreenvtr]

so how can i check if the wires are working fine?

cheers

[Baz]

just check the connections, unplug power cable from battery disconnect all connections, power cable in amp, earth into amp and where its bolted to the car, remote wire from amp to HU, all fuses checked. put them all back in then put power cable back onto battery and see if its working

[mattchewone]

prob the remote wire fitted my mate missed out the remote and nothing worked just try checking at back of the HU make sure you have the same cable connected to the remote slot on the amp

Does It Have A Security Light, Usually A Red One, If Thats On Check Earths, As This Red Light Will Lock The Amp (security Measure), Turn Of Amp And Turn Bakc On And It Should Be Ok, Other Than That If It Doesnt, You Cant Really Tell If Its Faulty Unless It Doesnt Work At All! If You Get What I Mean, Just Make Sure The Blue Wire Is Plugged In At The Back Of The Stereo (remote Wire)

[leegreenvtr]

well normally the LED red light would be on but when i looked yesterday is was off.

check the fuse earth and cables as said

[leegreenvtr]

either Kenwood KAC-929 1000 Watt Car Audio Amplifier
