any help would be great - and rough prices ...... might just try and get the pioneer fixed


cheers

fit a higher amp fuse

open up the legacy and check the board for any dry joints , the pioneer well try using a bigger fuse and if it still blows there someting not quite right

if the fuse blows with no music coming through its bolloxed. unless you are going flat out the fuse shouldnt go.

iceman uses some guy over on east belfast to fix stuff. dont knwo the name but worth calling iceman.

and emmy if u can see dry joints your some kid unless its real bad you wont see it

i know the electronic center in belfast city center fixes anything i had to take my amp there cause it was from the states

i think the iceman use hi fi services

if u call down to the iceman they would be able to tel u better but

had a similar problem just upgraded my wiring from an 8 gauge to 4 gauge and bigger fuse :lol:

wot fuses are you blowing by the way cause if it the fuses in the power cable then they are prob not big enough or something they should be the same size as the fuses in the amp

 

[pablo]

depends if its blowing them while running or just when connected up. if its during running then maybe you need a bigger fuse (check specs). if its when connected then something is shorting someplace

i have the same problem with my Rockford 1001bd amp. It blows fuses as soon as the radio is turned on. Don't know wots up with it as ive checked for blown components-must be one of the microprcessors. Ill have to try the electronic centre!

 

[Jmax]

craigavon television repair center can fix it

 

[djlee_dj]

this blows fuses as soon as you have the power/earth wired up - touch the fuse trying to plug it in and bang , it goes pop

couldnt be ar$ed fixin it

 

[daves106]

sounds like there is a short somewhere in the system check all your power cable and make sure the plastic round it hasnt worn away and is touching bodywork especially where it comes through the firewall and check all your connections or it could be a short inside the amp in which case it would need fixed

 

[djlee_dj]

my amp works 101%
but the one i have been given doesnt - couldnt be ar$ed gettin it looked at - il hold on to it incase i need a cheap one
