Ok i have 12's in my car 2 to be exact so i was driving home one day(3 months ago) and my subs stoped working have them on a 1000watt diesel audio amp.... so i was like wtf... each sub will take 850 rms... so i was like eh!? i have 2 ferad capsitor... might be alitlte too much but anyways! SO IV REPLACED! the 8 gauge wires with 4 gauge.... i sent my amp back to manufac, THANKS TO FRYS EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT I HAVENT SEEN MY AMP IN 2 MONTHS! went cheap onmy amp... like $150.00 USD so anyways ANYONE?!?!?!?!?!?! I WANT MY SUBS BACK!!!!! sitting my in friends garage!
Maybe you fried the amp that you sent back to the manufacturer. Do you have another amp to put in to see if that is the issue? You don't have the original amp back yet right? Honestly, you're original post is really hard to follow about what the problem is, what you have tried, and what the current status is.
Did the amp power up? Were there any fuses blown? Why did you switch to 4gauge wire, did the fuse in the 8gauge wire blow? 8 gauge wire should be plenty for those subs. check the resistance on your subs using an ohm meter, if its the same or close to what they're rated your subs are fine and thats not your problem. otherwise.. more info!
i switched to 4 gauge cause i felt it would be more consistant and get more power with out killing the wire... but anyways yeah i swaped wires i tried my kicker amp with a 10' inch sub i have im still not getting any power to a amp and the kicker amp is fine it worked great i just took it out cause i wanted more thump the 10' isnt blown... neither is the kicker amp
Use a meter to check for 12V coming in to the amp from the battery and 12V at the remote wire from the HU. Also, check the ground and make sure it is secure. If you aren't getting power to the amp, it shouldn't be too difficult to track it down.
Your voice coil might have slid our on the the former and causing it to cease and stop moving. Are the tinsel terminals missing broke or anything. Cause with out them then sound with not work on the subs.. There are alot of things that could have gone wrong with them........ Is there anything else besides them just stopping like any noises or anything....
