    this might help http://www.electro-tech-online.com/g...unit-help.html but i just googled it i don't have any expereince. It seems you would have to pay the 25 but it looked like there was a way to short out the head unit

    and if you do not feel like looking heres what the guy posted as the first soultion
    "on the bottom of all eclipse units to my knowledge is two (2) solder
    points that are visible through the chasis, if you take something like
    a paper clip and open it up so you got a "V" shape, you can make
    contact with these two terminals, and that should reset everything
    back to factory specs, that is what eclipse does when you (as the
    registered owner) send your unit in to them when it (the H/U) sceams
    "call 800", or "help"... and this will save you a two to four week
    wait, BUT YOU DIDN'T HEAR THIS FROM ME, I don't want someone at
    Eclipse getting pissed at me because "I Let Out Their Secret"
    I'm just don't feel it's fair to go so long W/O a toy. but now that I
    let the cat out of the bag, i'm probally gonna be sorry because alot
    of items will end up stolen now, and now their "ESN" means nothing, SO
    FORGET YOU READ THIS AND SEND YOUR UNIT IN, YOU CANNOT FIX IT, YOU
    NEVER READ THIS, I DO NOT EXIST, THIS THREAD NEVER EXISTED, IT IS ALL
    FALSE, NEVER MIND, DO NOT READ THIS, just go about your marry little
    way and pretend all this is a heap of Sh*t, and everything I spew out
    of my mouth is false."

    well I have had letters from my home owners association saying that multiple members of my comunity have had issues with me and my loud car radio as they put it. I asked for a list of the people who complained because I wanted to go personally and appologize for all the issues that I may have caused. after getting the 5 or 6 person list I realized 2 of the ppl lived 2 roads over in my neighborhood LOL. atleast a block away. they said that from time to time their pictures on all the walls would viberate lol. I said sorry and try to keep my system off during the neighborhood. Once I'm on the road F the rest of the ppl. LOL.

    lol Have been pulled over 1 time for it. the cop said the screen on his laptop was waving from the bass lol. I have fun with it. I need a new amp for the sub. something that will run at 1 ohm about 2500 rms. 2000 would work but 2500 would set the sub on fire lol. its rated at 2000 rms 4000 peak. but it really needs 2500 to come to life. What you heard was only at 1000 rms. It would be 2 times louder. I'd come close to blowing the rear window with that much power.

    I will just call BS on all these claims.

    My old system was topping 147 on the termlab to 38hz and you could hear it across the street, but it was rattling any pictures.

    Dodge, I used to have 2 of those same subs in 10.5cu tuned to 33hz with 160" of port. Loud as fuck, but still not rattling pictures 2 blocks away.

    I was also running about 15.5v on a mmats d3000.05. Subs saw about 1300wrms each after box rise.

    LOL, that Kenwood system I am doing for $200 can be heard over a block away...that is not impressive. Hell, in my Accord, I have 1 12" DB Drive Platinum Sub running at 1200rms in a 3 cuft vented enclosure. It is in a trunk of a sedan facing the top of the trunk (which is not the best set-up for a trunk) and I hit 146.9 on a termlab. It can be heard from more than 2 blocks away.

    Not trying to start anything, just sayin'.

    Maybe very soon...

    In the near future I will be bringing in my own brand amps and subs. I know the company that makes Memphis's lineup. So basically I would have the same products, just labeled different. So instead of buying the Mojo for $600+, it would be like $200.
