Help with system - Music is cutting out
#1
Ok I have an extremely odd problem with my system that need help with....
Whenever I turn left or hit a bumb at any speed over 10-15Km/h my system will cut out and come back on about 10 seconds later. I can turn right as hard/fast as I want it doesn't do anything.
Ok heres where it gets kinda interesting, the deck never looses power, the sub stays on but at a very very low volume, you can hardly hear it, the speakers you cannot hear
It is not a ground issue cuz both amps are grounded to 2 seperate grounds and they maintain power as the sub is still on and I can see the power light from the other amp
Volume doesn't affect it, it cuts out at all volumes. Its not the CD skipping cuz when the music comes back on its where it should be and it does it with the radio aswell, both AM and FM...
Right now im thinkin its prolly my deck that is messed up, so I'm gonna try and get another deck to test with, but if anyone has any ideas as to what is wrong any help would be nice!
One more thing, It did this once about 2 weeks ago and I though nothing of it since it worked fine for the rest of the night, but not it does it all the time and its very annoying
Here is my system:
Alpine 7894 <-- only 9 months old
JL 500/1
JL 10W7
PG Tantrum 200.1
Alpine Type-X Components, no rear fill
Thanks fer taking the time to read my long *** post and fer your help

Can a capacitor go bad? (Ie not take/hold a charge as well as it could originally?) Maybe there is a bad cap somewhere in the HU that gets shorted out with a bump and it takes itself a while to regain enough of a charge to fire up the unit again
I have no idea, that's just speculation.

It seems like it is a problem down the signal path. If it affecting both amps without causing them to shut down, then I would say it is likely an issue with the RCA outs, or possibly your deck internals. Inspect all of your cable connections behind the dash. I'd be curious to see if changing the deck makes a difference.

it's either one of the two: your rca's either touch each other when you turn or they touch the ground somewhere. OR its your remote wire, it is possible touching the negative or the frame of the car somewhere.
