Ball park guess is you blew the amp hooking it up backwards. Check fuses first.

SOURCE: My Power Protector Light wont turn Green

switch off the amp then take off all the wires off including the speaker wire and then reconnect the wires on like before the problem is that the amp is on protection and if that dont work then get it repaired another thing is make sure ur amp fuses havent blown.

SOURCE: Amp LED light turns on then off

You need to use a multimeter to confirm that you have both B+ and remote voltage at the amp.

SOURCE: amp wont turn on

It's possible the ground is not a good connection. Sometimes it may look good but dirt or corrosion builds up resistance creating a voltage drop where the wire is grounded to the frame.

SOURCE: RED Port light on AMP?

are you sure its not PROT?
the amplifier is protecting itself from fire because of something.
Disconnect the subs. and turn on.
if it comes on normally, the subs are at fault and will need attention. If the light still stays on, you hafe probably blown an output on the amplifier and it will need repair.

All lights green except the internet light, its red. Went into setup but the (apply) button is missing so can't change anything. Any ideas?

Reset it back to factory defaults & configure it again. Press & hold the RESET button until all of the lights change to POST (power on self test) mode. Once the POST is done, log in & configure it.

Kicker impulse 254 amp red light on top?

1st check all of your wiring, make sure the remote wire is hooked up, check to see it the RCA's are hooked up. I know this sounds stupid, but i've done it a thousand times, check to see if you hooked up the speakers. If you checked all of those and still nothing, double check your ground. Make sure where you have it grounded, you have all the paint sanded away and its a good grounding point. The red light on the top of the amp, its not a protection light is it??

Radio & anttena will not come on with ignition.

From the factory wiring there will be a red/white wire with a constant 12v and an ignition switched 12v wire which is red/gray. Hook those to corresponding wires on the aftermarket wiring harness. You may have the constant and switched wires backwards. Also the antenna trigger wire (usually blue on aftermarket radios) should be hooked up to the green/red wire on the factory harness.

For a complete wiring schematic check out www.the12volt.com
