Trouble with Ampand 12" sub, need some help!

How do you have the 12v lead spliced? You are not showing any RCA's in the schematic. Dumb question, but, they are there right? Check to make sure you have a good ground, no paint, god tight connection, ect. You are also not showing a remote wire. I've never tried it, but I don't think the amp will even turn on without it.

Try unplugging the RCA'a from the amp and turning it on. If nothing, there is probably a problem in the deck itself. If that does nothing, try a different amp. If nothing, try a differend seaker. Eliminate options one at a time. Also, if I'm not mistaken, 1.6 ohms is really low. Most setups are 2ohm or 4ohm. I'd say try a different speaker.
I havea 300w amp that used to roduce a low rumble when turned on. I swapped out amps and never had another problem.

That is about the only thing I can tell you. Good luck with it.
