so my amp used to be hooked up to my factory deck through an rca adapter, now i bought a new deck and some cheap rca's from radio shack (which might be my problem), and it worked fine for about a week and all of a sudden the sub started cuttin out and would just randomly turn on even when i didnt have music playing. and now the light on my amp isnt turning on, not even the protect mode light. can someone tell me whats wrong? |

Two things off the top of my head:
1. Amp may not be turning on. Check you REM wire.
2. Your amp is broken. |

Two signs right there.
Im not sure if RCA's would deal with the amp not turning on. |

You probably just have a loose wire either at the amp or the battery. Check and make sure your ground has a clean and strong connection. |
