With the shroud removed, drill 4 holes using a 7/64” drill bit and use the supplied #8 screws to mount the amplifier. Installation Mounting When selecting a location to mount your Kicker amplifier be sure it is structurally sound and that there are no items behind the area that could be damaged by the screws. Check for brake lines, fuel lines, gas tanks, or wiring harnesses, etc. All amplifiers generate heat under normal operation.
When working with power connections it is always recommended that you disconnect the battery to prevent accidents. The ground should be connected to the amplifier first before making any of the other connections. This wire should be as short as possible (24 inches or less) and connected to a paint/corrosion free solid metal area of the car’s chassis. Use the same gauge wire as recommended for the amplifier’s power connection to the battery.

Your Kicker amplifier has four rotary controls and two switches on the end panel. These controls ensure the reliability and performance of the amplifier, so they need to be set correctly. CROSSOVER SWITCHES NEVER CHANGE THE CROSSOVER SWITCH SETTING WITH THE SYSTEM ON! The switches located on the end panel next to the RCA jacks are for setting the internal crossover. In the OFF position the amplifier passes a full range signal to the speakers. Use the LO positon when connected to a subwoofer.
Trouble shooting Help If your amplifier does not appear to be working, check obvious things first such as blown fuses, poor or incorrect wiring connections, crossover and gain controls set incorrectly, etc. There is one LED on the end panel of your Kicker KX series amplifier, it will turn from red to green depending on status. When the LED is green this indicates the amplifier is turned on and no trouble exists. If the LED turns red this indicates that the protection circuitry (SORT) is engaged.
Trouble Shooting Poor stereo image or reduced bass response: Check system phasing by turning the balance control from left to right. If there is more bass output when turned to either side then check your speaker wiring for proper positive and negative connections. reverse connections on one channel if necessary. CAUTION: When jump starting the vehicle, be sure that connections made with jumper cables are correct.
