ohm reading after wired up.

[mwerling1212 1]

I got curious and wanted too check out the ohm reading on my sub, so i just disconnected the speaker cable from my amp, then put the probes of my dmm on the the positive and negative cables. The dmm says its wired to 1.8-2.0 ohms. Is this normal? or by some mistake do i have a d4 ohm sub? I have a SS RL-p 18 d2, wired in parallel to my sundown saz1000d. thanks!

I no you said you have it ran in parallel but are you by any chance still checking one coil or are you checking bot coils together. If you are checking both coils together you have d4 subs but make sure you have both coils together no wires that are not connected

i have one d2 ohm sub wired in parallel in my box, then i checked it by putting the probes on the cable coming out of the box.

Either one of the coils blew or a wire came loose when installing it. Pull the sub out and check the coils and wiring.
