I have a shark mini-amp shkqu3001 320w monoblock and 2 10" comp kicker subs. I just recently returned from a 2 week AT for the army. Before I left, everything was fine. I come back, all of a sudden my subs don't work. The amp does this weird thing where it turns on and off... checked all the fuses and wiring, everything's good. Any ideas? if you couldn't tell I'm not real experienced with the audio side of things. I can hook it up, that's about it.

 

sounds like a loose wire... Maybe while U were gone a rodent got in and chewed on the wires? Also get yur battery load tested.

 

check the main fuse supplying power to the amps. I've had weak ones in the past that have given an intermittent symptom. Better yet just change it with a known good one, they're not too bad on cost.

 

Tried all of that today. Still the same story, I don't think the amp's blown because then it wouldn't work at all right? And I know there's usually a smell when they're bad so I dunno what the deal is.

 

It sounds like your signal wire is lose.

 

check the remote wire from HU to amp.
double check grounds. contact to bare metal

the subs dont work at all?
of course check your rcas.

if you have any spare rca? swap them in... same with the remote wire.

you also check the wires within the sub enclosure?

much easier to check if you have a multimeter
