Bought a used Sub from another org member. Replaced mine and it didn't work. How can I test the Bose to see if it is working properly and also how to. I have no clue on what to do, electronics is not my strong..

 

sounds like ur having the same problem me and soo many others have had check this out http://forums.maxima.org/5th-generat...00-maxima.html i would bet that this is whats wrong with it. i just eliminated the whole plug

 

it was working for the other member and I dont doubt him...

 

noo i was refering to the problem being in the circuit board that eliminates unwanted noise if u look in the thread i posted u wil lsee what i mean.

 

well, did the soldering on mine and it didnt work, i just added this new one and it didnt either.. so iguess no more Boom,Boom for me

 

try to eliminate the plug completely just unplug them and then plug it back without the board see if that works

 

any 1 has another idea?

 

You can Buy a Cheap Amp & Keep the Factory Sub.
It is Simple to Wire.....

I Replaced the Amp and Sub....
Still using the Factory Wires w/ No Problems.

 

but the amp works..I think.. wil take it ot someone to check it out

 

did u try eliminating the whole circuit board????? just unplug it all and plug the wires directly into each other leaving out the plug. try that before u take it somewheres

 

If you want to check the sub you can use a 9 volt battery. Disconnect the sub from the amp and tap the speaker leads of the sub to the battery. If it doesnt pop, the sub is bad.

 

the sub is not the problem, its the relay in the amp. Im sending mine to the guys at Factory Car Stereo Repair, the web site is carstereohelp.com . They deal with this problem all the time and assured me its the amp. They're charging me $85 + shipping. Im shipping out today, Ill keep you posted on results.
