ok the green light keeps blinking & the red light was on... the red one was a protection light..
so the accesories guy said my amp is "protected", ask me to send for repair wor.. he was honest enough to say it can be repaired, & dint ask me to change amp~~

ok the problem.. whenever u switch off ur HU.. if u instantly switch it back on, i guess ur woofer still turns on along with everything right..?

as for mine.. if i instant restart my HU.. my amp doesnt kick my woofer along..
have to turn my HU off for a while.. later turn it back on baru my amp start kicking again..
wwlai87
means once u switch off ur HU the amp will goes into "standby" mode and cool down for some time.. if turn on instantly the amp also doesn't work..

have to wait for a while only can...?

sweat.gif first time hear this kind of problem.. anyway since the accessories guy knew that it can be repair, he duno where and who can do the repairing meh? sweat.gif

sure its not a wiring problem? check your power,grounding and rca connections if ketat or not first..last time i sold a set of speakers,the customer complained it was faulty..after check his wiring,the rca on the amp was loose..secure it with a few wire ties then ok ready..same problem,speakers kick in after awhile when u turn on ur HU

ryan_hustler
Most of the time when electronic devices start failing,its not that cannot be repaired but if few parts start condeming usually the whole system is becoming unstable and if you manage to repair it,something else will give way soon..not that im tryin to discourage you bro,but mayb you should look into the cost of a new amp also..
wwlai87

anyway, puchong wo.. veli popular de accessories shop named ML Automart.. just behind Tesco.. u din try it? smile.gif i luv going that place..

Plug in another amplifier and see if the problem persists. If it does, check your wiring throughout.

Maybe you can let us know what brand and model of amplifier and we can be more helpful in pointing you a service centre that caters for it. For example, if it is Helix, Brax, Zapco or Tru Technology and you send it to pasar road, by golly they might not have the right spare parts or expertise to repair the unit and/or worst of all they return it to you with missing parts. No kidding..

wwlai87

The point is so we can direct samsoong to the distributor, that will have technical expertise and parts for the amplifier. He can get a quotation and if it does not fit the budget, he look for alternatives.

If you send directly to a cheap third-party technician, yes they may get it working again but to orginal specification is really unknown! shakehead.gif

Want to get it fixed, get it done the right way. Of course this is only my opinion and recommendation. Not meant to confuse anyone. rclxub.gif

haha.. i heard is one ez automart at pearl international hotel at oug..
i think i will try there tomrrow tongue.gif
ayell
I think better check your wiring first, amps always have protection from overheat & overcurrent that's why the 'protected' led is on, it is protecting your amp from kaboom.
wwlai87
but that only protect u from overheat, when u boom too keng until almost overheat, then it cut the power..

now TS's problem is that, everytime off, can't on back directly.. blink.gif
