  • Subwoofer stopped working

    Stopped working yesterday, mailed about warranty, asked to supply installation photos. Sent along with how I installed it. They wanted pictures of the earth point. I earthed the sub at the main earth point from vauxhall in the engine bay and ran cable through firewall to unit. They say earth not suitable . I even cleaned bottom of earth point with wire brush etc. Going to test ground point tomorrow to make sure, but really don't see an issue. Its gone back will have to wait and see.

            I believe I grounded my sub on the rear seat bolt (the single side) nearest the middle of the car and had no cutting out problems.

            I do have something grounded where you do though and that is my dashcam perm power and have no problems with that but it is a low power draw.

              I had no problems either, no cutting out or anything. Nothing wrong with that earth. Will see what they say, they should receive it back today.

                Sounds silly but did you checked all the fuses?

                Get the sub out and try it on some other equipment

                  It was powering up OK, no fault lights, everything working as should except no output from sub. Its gone back for inspection.

                        Yes active, I suspect the amp has blown, no output what so ever. Dealer trying to blame bad earth, I'm not having that. Just need to wait to see what they say.
