Posted May 13, 201312 yr I worked this past weekend. Drove to the track and parked my car on friday afternoon. I went to leave tonight and when I would turn up volume to my normal listening level the red light would come on and my sub would not work. When I parked my car on friday everything was working correctly. Any thoughts why this would happen? We did get some pretty hard rains but I have had no issues with this previously. I have been running this set up since january. I have not had the chance to check voltages yet but any direction to why the sudden change. My current battery is just the standard car battery I purchased from sears in december. Just confused.

May 13, 201312 yr Just have to start by process of elimination. Start simple. Check cables make sure everything is still tight & secure, including ground cable. Check voltage under load. Move on from there to the subwoofer. Check impedance & continuity @ different excursion levels.....i.e. push & hold the cone inward & outward.
