alpine sent me a new hu and the rcas arent working from the hu on either my eclipse amp or alpine amp? is their a possibility the rca wire is bad? my friend gave me some pheonix gold wire but its used. what could be the problem? did the hi low adapter mess up the amps inputs???? need help dont know what to do!

ok i took the hu to the dealer and the rca outputs workfine, i used 2 different rca wires and still nothing. before i was using the hi low adapter, could the hi low adapter fawk up the rca inputs on the amps? the guy told me to check allll of my wiring. WHAT TO DOO??

since you have this awesome dealer, take ur system in, have them fix it and dont leave until they do.

hey, i got an idea, why don't you take it in to that awesome dealer of yours and let them fix it but don't leave til they have fixed it !

Have the awesome dealer correct the problem...


















sorry couldnt resist a third one

your awesome dealer doest appear to be so awesome...

*jumps on bandwagon*

take it back to the dealer and complain to them.

what do you guys mean mean?

ok so i sent the radio in, i got it back and it doesnt give no signal to the amps.

the dealer took the hu and hooked it up to the display and it was working. what im trying to say is that something on my system is hooked up wrong but i dont know what

i did all the wiring myself.

come on guys help me, could the input on the amps be bad?? its a brand new hu, brand new amp, sub and components.

i remeber when i had my xplod amp with my old hu the sub controller sent out a low signal but until i blew the main fuse the amp was able to get a signal from the rca from the hu

tried swapping out the RCAs with another set yet?

i used 2 different rca wires man

i dont think my amp has a subsonic filter

that wouldn't prevent signals from getting to it. hmm...tried hooking a dif amp to the HU?

yes i did it to both amps

damn, i'm out of ideas...

dealer said rcas works fine, yet when you connect it to your amps you don't get a signal.

is the amp getting power?

yes the amp was bumping today off the bose from the hi low adapter.

the dealer hooked it up to their amp and it was playing from the hu

go drive to don, he will honestly tell you whats wrong (maybe its something in your head), and he wont charge you $70 an hour to diagnose the problem which is crap.

i'm at a lost

power is good, ground is good, remote is good, what more is thier? magic?

matter a fact the alpine amp i got never worked with the alpine hu, but it worked off the hi low, think the hi low adapter magnetized the rca inputs?

maybe the amp isnt drawing enough power??

wouldn't explain why it would work with the hi/lo adapter

come on guys think!! lol man i dont know what to do right now

i mean the sub controller is on and everything, time to whip out the manual

let your dealer mess with it

they say they dont know what to tell me. they told me to check alll my wiring.

if all else fails, completely rewire everything.

but i dont understand what is there to rewire for sound? stupid system put all this money into it and still cant enjoy it.

We Found the Problem
j/k

the dude on bcae1.com told me something about a protective ground shield on the hu? wtf is that?

yeah, man take off the 3-8 amps you have somehow wired in your car, and start over.

i only have 2 but what could be the problem!!!!
