I just bought a cvr kicker 10' sub, hooked it up in my car replaceing a polk audio sub. The kicker keeps blowing my fuse. i have checked the wireing. i have an 800watt sony xplode amp. Please help

It's drawing too much current. make sure you have a nice solid ground to your car chasis( i use seat bolt or something like that) and that your wire is the right gauge. If it's still popping your fuse make sure you are wiring the subs as specified by the manufacturer.

If it has only one set of terminals on the sub just plug and play- if it has dual coils wire them in parallel(+ to+ and - to -) and wire them to the amp

"google" subwoofer wiring diagrams to find out how to hook it up to the right ohms and everything..........hope this helps

If the amp is not kicking what it should it probably s a wattage problem. Check to see if the alternator has high enough voltage distribution. That is also why it keep shuting down.

connect each dual in series then parallel each sub

Hi , you need to replace with thick wire , if possible attache fuse or circuit trip overload protection you may ask to thew radio store .

Check to make sure there is a good input to the amp. Next check each sub to another source to make sure they are good. Look for any reset on the amp.

ya u allreadyfound ound out the problem u have factory amps there u go after market

what size fuse is it usually you use at least a 40

Hi Big Nick,

 

Sounds like you have got almost all the good out of those Subs. You can find the screws you need at almost any hardware store or Auto parts store. The light is becase you are dloading the amp with low OHMS.  You may need use one channel and Run the wiring like written blow to get the power problem to disappear.

 

S1+ = Kicker comp cvr sub coil 1 positive

A+ = Amplifier Positive output.

 

 

A+ to S1+

S1- to S2+

S2- to A-
