Power LED not ON
Power LED is GREEN, no output
Protection LED is ON, no output
and
1. Amp is VERY HOT
2.
Amp shuts down ONLY when the
vehicle is running
3. Amp plays at very low volume
Bluetooth LED is white
(On pairing/Off nin pairing)
With a Volt Ohm Meter (VOM) check:
• +12 Volt power terminal (should read +12 to +16VDC).
• Remote turn-on terminal (should read +12 to+16VDC).
• Ground Terminal.
• Check RCA connections.
• Test speaker outputs with known good speaker.
• Substitute known good Source Unit.
• Check for signal on the RCA cable with VOM
in AC position.
• Thermal protection is engaged. Check for proper
impedance
at speaker terminals. Also check for
adequate air flow around the amplifier.
• Voltage protection engaged. Voltage to the amp is
not within the 10-16.8 VDC operating range.
Have the battery/charging system inspected.
• Short circuit protection
is engaged. Check for
speaker wires shorted to each other or the vehicle
chassis. Speakers operating below the minimum
impedance can cause this to occur.
On, no output • Power off it and restart again.
Bluetooth not connect succeed
Alternator noise (varies with RPM) • Check for damaged RCA cable.
• Check routing
of RCA cable.
• Check Source Unit for good ground.
• Check amp gain setting, turn down if set too high.
Poor Bass Response • Check speaker polarity, reverse the connection.
of one speaker only.
NOTE: If the RED protection L.E.D. is activated with no speakers connected to the
amplifier,
and all the power connections are correct, this would indicate an internal
problem with
the amplifier. Contact SOUND STREAM or your local dealer.
