What head unit do you have? What are all the settings on that head unit? All of them.

Check your ohm reading at your leads that go to your amp.

Draw a pic of how you have your subs wired.

Do i need to take the leads to amp and move them to the other vc?

Set your meter to ohms and read the ohms with the wires unhooked. What does it read?

Give me a few lol. Im still in bed. Update soon:)

ok, maybe I missed it, but what subs (brand, model, and VC) and amp are you using? It looks like you're running parallel.

is it wired +to+to+to+

-to-to-to-

make sure you didnt lose a wire between coils. its very easy for one wire to come off as you try to connect another in the coil.

According to my dmm my ohms is at

Flipping between 1.5 and 1.4 then its not flipping at 1.3 to 1.2

Now its flipping 1.1 and 1.2

So that sounds right

Im going to check wiring

[no_username 2]

Each sub has to be wired exactly the same way.

than his drawing is right... as long as all positive are linked and then all negative are lined the same way... but if he loses a wire as he hooks them up he could have cancellation. I lost one on my old set up and 2 15s sounded like a single 10...

Screw it i gotta take them out to trim the carpet so they will fit

I will just rewire them up and hook to amp before i put them in box

The other thing to look for is there a volume setting for the subs on the head unit.

[no_username 2]

Yes there is. I had it +15

[pmureika 31]
