TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM CAUSE
1. No power or ground at the amp.
No Sound and power LED is not lit 2. No remote turn-on signal
3. Blown fuse near the battery
1. No signal input
No sound, power LED is lit.
2. The AlRBASS/Accessory switch
is in the
“IN”
position. Move it to the
“OUT” position.
Repeatedly blow amp fuse;
frequent activation of Smart Power
1. Speaker or leads may be shorted
Supply Circuit
2. Verify adequate amp ventilation
Not enough input sensitivity while
Be sure both Left and Right input
using the Balanced Input
signal switches are set to the
“BAL”
position.
Very little output, or output is
muffled.
Make sure that
both
the L.P. and
the H.P.
crossvers
aren’t
engaged
Left and Right “Clip” indicators
lighting
Output signal level is too high and
the amplifier output is clipping.
Reduce the level either at the source
or at the input level controls.
1. Make sure the Right Input Signal
Switch is in the
“UNBAL”
position.
Alternator whine while using
Unbalanced RCA inputs
2.
