My Amp is Flickering back and forth out of protect and power..Ive changed the fuses..I have changed the power wire connenction and all...I'm outta Suggestions..Need Help Bad

okay well first tell us this:

1. what amp

2. what your cars electrical consists of

3. how was your gain set

4. what is your crossovers set at

5. what is the rest of the amp settings while we are on the topic

6. what is your ohm load

7. have you check your sub to see if something messed up there

8. what is your sub

9. what is your name

10. who is your daddy and what does he do lol! jk

and report back and always try to give all the info you can right off the top!

i've seen rapid in and out protection caused from internal fault at rca inputs.

Thing to try to rule that possibility out quick-

Unplug all rcas and see what happens.

If it stays on, start by plugging one in at a time until you find culprit.

At that time, take that rca cable and plug it into another input channel on amp to rule out cable and preout channel from HU.

Also.. when i have seen this happen in person.. the amp caught on fire about 10sec later... So hopefully it hasn't on you...

Your running an audiopipe amp? If I'm not mistaken that is made by maxsonix right? same as hifonics? Because when I first got my hifonics installed all it did was flash protect and barely powered my sub, so I had to send it back because the internals were f'd. Got a new one installed with the same wire and everything and it worked perfect, and still powers my sub great and hasnt happened once. They are not the best amps but good for a budget.

I don't think that Audiopipe is made by Maxxsonics.

Audiopipe is Audiopipe. No Maxxsonics involved at all.

Yeah my mistake I guess I got it mixed up with autotek, but if the amp has never worked I would think its the same problem.
