Hey I got a JL J2 1000 amp and I've had installed on my 2 12" RF Punch HX2 wired to 1 ohm for about 2 weeks and it's now in protection mode. This happened when I got up the next morning and realized my subs weren't putting out anything. I need help!!! Also, when the amp is disconnected from the subs and the rca's it is still in protection mode. I am fearing it is bad

Yep it's likely something internal. Check all your fuses just in case.

Hello,
Many amplifiers will illuminate their protect LED during the mute delay (when you initially power up the amplifier). After a short delay (2-10 seconds), the protect LED will go off. For those amplifiers this is normal. Other amplifiers ONLY illuminate the protect LED when there is a problem. If you know how your amplifier behaves when the amp is in good working order, it will make troubleshooting much easier. If you are unsure about this, you can email me or ask someone on a forum where they're familiar with the amplifier you have. For the most part, this page is for amplifiers that go into protect mode and remain in protect mode or go into protect mode when the amplifier is driven hard.

good luck!!

if its stuck in protect it is most likely some blown mosfets. you can replace them. or you can get a new amp. but if its not comming out of protect at all thats the most likely problem.

When you meter the final load of the subs what are they sitting at?
