Hey all :wavey:

Got a problem with my stereo, everytime i turn it up (to decent volume) the speakers cut out. I have a JVC headunit, splits in front, 6X9's in rear which run off 1 amp, a inline fuse which has volt reader and spliter from single to twin and Pioneer sub that runs off another amp. I've tried replacing the remote wire for the speakers amp, didn't work. I've tried swapping with a different amp, didn't work. :down: It's only the speakers that cut out, can still here the sub thumping away. Was considering redoing the wiring for the amp next, does anyone have any other suggestions to my problem.

hey man have you tried just running the 6 by 9's by itself and see if it cuts out.. or just the splits by it self.

Yeh at the moment i only have the 6X9's running through the amp, still got the same problem.

Most likely your fuse and/or cable isn't large enough for the amp to run at full capacity(which is why it works on lower volume).

Check the connection is secure on the power line splitter also.

Cheers mate will check it out when i get back home.

+1 for thermal overload.

Also, what grounding have you got on the effected Amp??

Remember, dont ground 2 amps at the same point, use 2 different grounding points, make sure they both have strong contact points, and the cable is sufficient.

B.

is your 4 channel amp overheating (thermal overload)? touch it they can get ridiculously hot after a good thrashing

Not sure, but even first thing it still cuts out.

Will have a look at this as, cable should be sufficient for ground. but i think they may be earthed out to the same point of contact.

Cheers

    • Price seems pretty good to me. Also seems a hell of a lot cheaper then buying another vehicle that only ever gets used for towing.  I'm a long way from you mate, I'm a couple of hours out of Brizzy. 
    • New [400]Z, they're available in manual and you don't have to worry about parts scarcity. 
    • Just planning to have the wiring neat and hide as much as possible.
    • The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.
    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
