As jhonny boy said..mine only cuts out on really hot or humid days.... so im guessin its an overheating problem..so whats the best way to get some air back there?????
FR33K, I am guessing that the issue lies with the installation. Before you go out spending thousands buying things you don't need, please bring the car down here so I can diagnose it for you.
My system has been fine for the last few years (installed myself) and only in the last few months have I had issues with the amp cutting out when turning it up as well as the lights diming (didn't do it before). My battery is on the way out (had a few problems starting on cold nights) and I'm attributing it to that
Might be the battery, on my old car it was. I just went and bought myself an Optima yellowtop! YUMMY! expensive but its a farkin great battery and holds a shitload of power for its size.
This probably sounds simple but doesn't the car electronics run off the alternator when the car is running? So what does a weak battery have to do with anything?
hey mate the reason why your amp seem to be cutting in and out is because it is getting hot so proection cut in and shut the amp down so it dosen't cook the inside of your amp your best bet to do is to go out and pruchase a mono block amp for your subs if you need help in pruchasing one i'am installer and salemans by trade so just pm i'll be glad to help but here are a few suggestion that i would by if your only running one type r i would get a kicker kx400.1 but if your got to our more get a kicker 600.1 or 1200.1 but there are cheaper options to
Sounds like you are suffering from the same problem as me, and i was told it was my battery, but then other times it's heat. It doesnt help that its a cheap amp either .
If your lights are dimming replace your battery, but it couldn't hurt to ventilate your amp a bit more.
Also check your connections. Poor connectors at the battery/amp terminals and/or power splitters can cause cutting out.
Especially check your batter terminal connections. I checked/cleaned my terminal connectors (still with the old battery) and its not cutting out anymore like it used to
