Thumbs down

Driving home in the rain, i had to make a left hand turn and turns out the back end got a lil outta control ( [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img] woops [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img] )...needless to say right when it did, the music went out, i wasn't 1/5th the way home....and just getting on the freeway, damn't, no music for hte ride home.

Anywho, the deck still worked, but neither the subs nor speakers made any noise. So it wasn't a single power or ground wire to either amp i guess. I couldn't really see the amps...but the only real possible causes for this would be either:

- remote turn on lead connection at deck.
- power wire to distro block.
- (unlikely) but possibly main remote turnon wire connection at first amp

any other possibilities that i should look into tommorrow?

Maybe remote wire came loose and fell out?
Maybe you blew a fuse?
You should be able to check for the problem one the sun comes out [img]smile.gif[/img]

if both amps went off, i doubt BOTH fuses in the distro block blew at once.... although it's a possibility... I would check your main fuse at the battery, which could be you have a power wire shorting out somewhere....

Maybe your amps were mad that you almost crashed your car and decided to shut down.

I would pop your trunk and ask them "Hey what's up. You know I really care about you guys, so hows about we stop this feuding. Give us a hug"

Just a thought

haha....

ok turned out that the main remote turn-on wire to the first amp came out - thus shutting off that amp as well as the secnod-somehow the copper wires inside got cut a lil (there's not much slack in that wire so i guess the amps moved a bit when i fishtailed doh.

All better now
