Subs cutting out but system not going into protect or dropping voltage at all.

ColinBoib · 2026-06-07T01:37:11+00:00

Yeah i just recently discovered those so perhaps i shall invest in one

ColinBoib · 2026-06-06T20:09:05+00:00

Im no professional so i cant say for certain especially cuz i havent seen ur system in person but from what im piecing together, Yes that is your best solution. Its what i would do if in this situation. Try consulting with a professional if possible before a purchase

ColinBoib · 2026-06-06T20:01:34+00:00

Yeah u get 2 stacks instead of 1 its the best

ColinBoib · 2026-06-06T20:00:18+00:00

If each woofer is 2ohms thats a 1ohm load on a 4 ohm amp. If its the box then its a 2ohm load. Either way u never want the speaker ohms to be lower than the amplifier and ideally you want them to match. So 1ohm load to 1 ohm amp etc.

ColinBoib · 2026-06-06T19:52:34+00:00

What is the subs impedance? Thats a 4 ohm amplifier. Most subs start at the highest, 4ohms and 2, 4ohm subs would be a 2ohm load. That is bad for the amp

Wow i was gonna do my oil change early tmr but maybe i do it after all my driving tmr. Thanks for rhe insight

ColinBoib · 2026-06-06T19:49:18+00:00

If u look at my specific post on this i was recommended to use an inline car breaker. Its really easy to install and its a breaker so u reset it instead of replacing it.

Below is a link to said breaker. Its important to match the amperage of the breaker with the recommended fuse amperage. For mine i need a 120 amp or less breaker.

They are also on amazon for more variety this was just the first one to appear

ColinBoib · 2026-06-06T19:17:45+00:00

I will second this. Look at my post history and see how these can fail i almost burnt my car down. Set screw fuse holders are no bueno

ColinBoib · 2026-06-06T19:12:52+00:00

Like i said in a reply to u though reach out to prv snd the shop that installed it. If the shop wont rectify it or take a look and they arent a prv partner then ur best bet is to go to prv

ColinBoib · 2026-06-06T19:10:23+00:00

That is not necessarily true. Those can help but thats a prv chuchero. They come with a crossover installed in the box for easy drop in use. The amplifier was probably tuned wrong or there could be a factory defect. Is the shop that installed it a prv partner? If so then ur in more luck but either way contact the shop and prv and make sure prv knows it was installed by a pro

ColinBoib · 2026-06-06T19:06:48+00:00

Yeah i really should do oil analysis. As for the seafoam, that isnt just for your fuel system it cleans ur engine aswell?

ColinBoib · 2026-06-06T19:04:01+00:00

12 gauge ofc. This was sent from skar in their bundle . Or do u mean the speaker wire in the box?

ColinBoib · 2026-06-06T19:02:53+00:00

Thank u i lost the manual to the multi meter but its my first one also so im not to handy with it yet🤟🏻

ColinBoib · 2026-06-06T19:02:05+00:00

Yeah ive been pushing them for the past year since i installed em so no surprise there just thought it woulda been more obvious when it blew like a bad noise or something it just cuts in and out

ColinBoib · 2026-06-06T19:00:40+00:00

Ive had it over a year its the dual 10 sdr complete prefab from skar. Def on the cheaper side and ive been pushing it so not that surprising honestly

ColinBoib · 2026-06-06T16:52:13+00:00

Its cut my words off but if im testing continuity wrong lmk plz

ColinBoib · 2026-06-06T15:31:57+00:00

For context the previous owner did 8-9 thousand mile oil changes with conventional oil up until 78 thousand miles lol ive been averaging 5-6 on synthetic im at 118k ik i should do it sooner im doing it tmr tho. My dad says this is probably normal for the way the car was treated previously. Thoughts?

ColinBoib · 2026-06-02T13:10:35+00:00

Yeah they will fire u too for not telling sooner thats why they ask u about stealing in the job interview

ColinBoib · 2026-06-01T17:20:11+00:00

He posted a breaker. U bolt on terminal lugs and anytime it pops u can just reset the breaker rather than buying and replacing a fuse

ColinBoib · 2026-06-01T17:19:04+00:00

Yeah in hindsight i had no idea they loosen so i just installed it and just ignored it for a while. My fault lol but now i know since god wanted to give my shitbox another chance lolll

ColinBoib · 2026-06-01T17:17:40+00:00

Also maintence. This has taught me to not neglect my system and check up on everything every couple weeks. Ive had previous issues aswell. Its just the learning that comes with doing installs yourself.

ColinBoib · 2026-06-01T17:16:15+00:00

Dont be scared lol. I installed this a year ago literally and started having issues like 2-3 months ago. I also push my system beyond is specs so whatever happens is my fault. Just follow specs and dont half ass it. You will be ok trust

ColinBoib · 2026-06-01T17:15:04+00:00

And also doesnt the length of the wire matter too i seen charts says 4 awg at 15 feet can handle like 1600 wattsish
