Ok, so yesterday, everything was fine, today theres NO SOUND coming out of ANY speakers... the radio is on and the equalizer is moving and everything, but Nothing!! Is it a fuse? help

 

what kind of setup do u have?

 

Yeah, are all of the speakers powered by the HU or an amp?

 

An amp

 

Check the fuses on your amp. Sounds like one of them might be blown. Usually, there's some sort of LED indicator on the amp to let U know that you've got power going to it. You might want 2 check that out first.

Just my $0.02 worth.

 

well theres 2 amps, one running the speakers and one running the subs. and theres NO sound at all, so i dont think its the amp but i will check...

 

It still might be the amps. The reason I'm saying that is they might be running from a common power source (i.e., power wire from the battery, through a distribution block, to the amps). But definately see if there is power at your amps. If there is none, then first check the fuses on the amps themselves (if they have any). Then, check the power source for the amps. If it was installed correctly, there should be some sort of fuse connected directly to the battery, or in close proximity to it.

Just my $0.02 worth.

 

thanks!

 

This is what i would do. First off... check fuses on both amps and power wire. Second, make sure your RCA's are still plugged in, make sure your remote wire is plugged in. BTW, use a volt meter too, that will help trace the problem.

 

There is a pretty good chance there's a fuse or a circuit breaker in relatively plain view somewhere in the engine compartment... Usually, a big thick cable is run straight to the battery for high-power setups... check there too, not just the fuse built into the amps... (Specially since both amps seem to be out).

Could be the head unit too, I suppose...

 

Without reviewing a thorough wiring diagrahm of your system I am guessing that the amps are not turning on. Check the fuses. Also check the led's to see if they are turning on. Or maybe a really clever thief broke into your car and stole the speakers, then put everything back where you left it.

 

Thanks for all your help guys! I just fixed it...i figured since neither amp was turning on, it had to be the main power source and it was. The fuse on the wire going to the battery. Thanks again!!!

 

Which tells us that probably the power wire and fuse are not equal to the current which is being pulled by the two amps. Didn't you just get a new amp?

 

yep...its the one running the subs

so should i put a different fuse...there was a 30 in there, so i replaced it with a 30

 

Combine the rating of both fuses. Take this number and ensure that you have thick enough power wire. If you exceed the amperage of the wiring it will melt. If you have thick enough power wiring then replace the fuse next to the battery with one that has the combined rating of the two amps, or simpler replace with one that has the power rating of the wire. Because it is the wire that you don't want to melt.
