[MoJoeTCM]

I hooked my friends apline type R-10 inch sub woofer to our kenwood amp...I also unhooked our 8 inch woofer....It hit for about a minute then it cut off....WHAT HAPPENED!!!!@@@!!!

[Heathen23]

audio section. many people can help ya;) I'm audio handicapped:(

[Vulcanon]

this should be in the car audio section....1st mp3 in NH runs the show in that section so I would repost to get it answered supa quick

[MoJoeTCM]

aw come on someone....it is a MSP AMP. Has anyone had this problem with out messing with there speakers?

[Equinox]

amp most likely over heated and cut it self off to protect itself, it will work again when it cools down. Assuming that's what happened

[Notorious]

Check the fuses. I'm betting you blew one. There is one next to the battery in little box on the power wire for the amp. Also check the fuse in the amp itself.

[MoJoeTCM]

which one is it in the box near the battery?

[boostisgood]

What Notorious said. Also, even though this is a MSP factory amp, this shouldve been posted in the Audio section. :D

Do you have a volt meter. If so, set it to "Ohm" and connect the positive and negative leads of the meter to the pos and neg of the posts of the woofer. If it reads close to say 4 ohms (being it is a 4 ohm woofer), then it should be fine, otherwise if it has a very low reading, you fried the voice coil.

[Notorious]

If you look at the positive terminal you'll find a wire that is connected to it that will go to your amp in the back. Follow the wire about 6 inches and you'll find a little box with a fuse in it. That's the one your looking for. If that fuse is fine, check the one in the amp itself.

Hmmmm k thanks Notorious P.I.G. hehe.... brb

I was thinking of an inline fuse, but since I don't have the MSP or a MP3 Pro, then I don't know if there is an inline fuse or not. You would have to check the owner's manual for that one. Sorry no help there.

[MoJoeTCM]

MUHAHA i found it....what do i do for a new 15 W fuse? where can i get one?

[Notorious]

Radio shack. You can get like 5 of them for a buck or so.
