Couple days ago I hit a bump and my amps went out, finally got time to check it out today, find out that the groud wire was lose, so I reconnected the ground wire, but my amp still not coming on, I checked all the wire and they seems ok. One thing I noticed is that when the ground wire was lose, the amp automatically draw power from the RCA cable, is that normal?? Can someone please tell me where to look to help my amp come back on.

thanks

 

Check all the connections again. And fuses.

If you cannot find it a voltmeter can make the job easier.

 

same as above, and also check your ground...is it grounded well? is it touchin bare metal? if not sand it down a bit.

 

I've checked everything already, all the fuse and all the connection. I'll go ahead and sand the grounding surface again tomorrow will see. Is is normal that if I put the ground out, and the RCA cable will act as a source of power?? Because that's what happen, I put the ground out, and the amp went on.

Thanks

 

Definately check the ground, if it fell off in the first place then it's probably not good.
The RCA cable may act as a ground if it's grounded, not a good thing to do for your amp

make sure rca's are still plugged in, remote lead is still hooked up, all that good stuff, and definatly check the fuses

 

Found the source of the problem, it is the remote wire, got it fixed. Thanks a lot guys.
