    have you check fuses? It may be getting power, but not enough to run the amp
    check signal, is there any voltage on the input or output side of the amp?

    check your signal, and make sure the amp isnt going into protection because of low voltage, low impedance, or some other issue.

    Happened to a system I did once..

    The actual speaker went bad.. It was brand new and only 2 hrs after installing

    If all the wiring is good try a friends sub or a speaker on your amp and see if it works..

    first off use real words and puntuation, your posts would be much easier to read.


    1. use a DMM and check the resistance of the subs and see if you fried a coil.
    2. use a DMM and check the voltage on the RCA's going into the amp
    3. Use a DMM to check the voltage going to your subs
