Check your sub woofer connection if you have multiple subs the could be wired in a parallel or with has to many ohms that my cause it to not hit right and cause the amp to get really hot and cut in and out

I have a flashing code p3001 what does it mean ? and how do I clear it.

What vehicle. If you have a code reader you can delete the code. Then see "if" it comes back on or how long before it comes back on?
I have one on my van that comes on every couple of months. I turn it off to get it smogged every 2 years. Then just leave it on & off as it wants to be. The funny part is. My van runs better and I get much better gas mileage when it is on.

That's me though.
What vehicle do you have. How long has it been on?

I need a schematic for a RF p300-1 amp. Im trying to replace 2 of the mosfet semiconductors that got fried.

There are no schematics for RF amps, normally RF uses standard IRF Mosfets. Can you decribe the area where they blew, Power Supply are usually N-Channel high current type. Outputs can be either N-Ch or P-Ch depending on the Power rail there attached to.

P3001 problem

if amp is mounted to back of the box try and move to in front of box near subs or port. the air movement of the sub will help keep the amp cooled. or you can orer some 12v cooling fans and take back plate of the amp and cool it that way. or you can buy higher quality audio, your choice

What Hz do i use

The best way to set up an amp is to start with everything on 0 Turn your gain all the way off, then turn the stereo up as loud as u would normally listen to it. With the stereo on, slowly turn the gain up until it sounds the way you want it. As for the Hz settings, for a sub you should have the crossover set to lpf, and the z knob adjusts what frequency your sub will play. Since you have a 10" sub, I wouldn't put it much below 125, because tens can't produce ultra low bass and it could damage the sub. Hope his helps :)

P3001

Tighten very good the ground wire to your amp, then clean the metal where the ground attaches to the car chassis. Then tighten the ever lovin' bejesus out of the chassis ground. Yeah, I'm from the South :)
Good Luck!
