Blows fuses My sub stoped working. dead, no sound, no LEDs nothing. I opened back & fuse was blown, so I replaced it. Put it together & turned it on w/ no cords connected & it makes a humming sound for about a second & goes dead (blowing the fuse). I tried again & same result. What could it be? What should I do?

I found a post where someone replaced several capacitors with ones he described as titanium and a higher voltage like 100 v rating rather than 50 as oem. He states no more problems. I found this site while searching again. I also found a free download pdf repair manual from JBL - site defined as Harmon, and they show revised parts replacements for these caps - 100 volt. I just bought a used one and not hooked up as yet, but I plan to use slow blow fuses and possibly a little higher rating - not much though, and I believe there is a ceramic type - color solid white - that may withstand the apparant surge. Theres also a recent post somewhere for sale of the amplifer board... 64smi or something like that. Hope this helps. Ken

Fuse blows when put in reverse

Possibly an internal failure of the reverse switch. The blown fuse is for both the reverse and the turn signal lights. The fix is replacement of the reverse switch.

My 2005 buick rendezvous keeps blowing the fuse for the turn signals and brake lights. Fuse #42 in the inside fuse panel. this just started happening two days ago. Nothing is different with the car.

most likely caused by a short, could be any were. start with the light assembleys remove it and clean any rusty or coroded spotspull all bulbs clean and or replace .auto parts stores sell an electrical parts wash about 9 to 14 $ . spray as needed let dry and put back together.if it still blows fuses its some ware in the wire s , could also be at the turn signal switch or the brake switch . you would have to get it to blow to figure out witch one it is and witch one it is not example put in new fuse then keep putting on the brakes if not blown then keep doin the turn signal then check to see if blown

Audiosource AST-Sub 10 subwoofer. it blows the fuse when turn on.

It sounds like your audio amplifer has a short (probably the out put transistors or module). This should not be an expensive epair.
To check your speaker you can use an ohm meter. First, pull of one of the two wires that connects at the speaker. You should read 4 to 8 Ohms. Also you will hear a little pop through the speaker as you touch the wire. You can also use a 9 volt battery in the same way.
Good Luck

I got an amp and as soon as i put the fuse in it blows even with the deck of all wiring is correct and i hear a thump from the subs when i put the fuse in, the subs work good on a diff amp

Sounds like the amp is blown. Is it the fuse at the amp that blows? or the one at your battery? disconnect the ground and power wires from the amp and check for continuity between the ground and power on the amp terminals. you should have no continuity, and if you do i would check for a shorted power supply mosfet. try disconnecting all speaker wires, rca's, and remote power and see if it still blows. If it does its a problem in the amp, probably blown mosfets.

Infinity Entra Sub 150 no sound or power

I had the same problem. When I opened it up, the fuse was blown, and it was a pain to find the fuse it needs (3 Amp, 250 V slow-blow fuse, 5x20 mm). Also, the 2 large electrolytics (big purple things near the amp) and one small capacitor were all blown. For 4 fuses, bought seperately from, and the 2 electrolytics and 1 capacitor, it cost about $20, plus almost 20 more in shipping, which still isnt bad considering the original price of the sub. However, the tricky part is that you have to know how to use a soldering iron to take out the old components and put in the new ones.

LED Light is on, but no sound from sub at all.. Have double backed on all wires but still nothing! HELP!!

I just brought mine to the shop for the same reason. I thought it was something big but it was just a bad fuse. It wasn't blown so when i checked it, I didn't think anything of. If you're using an AGU fuse, try and remove the fuse and touch the two ends of your power wire together and if it's the fuse it should cut on

My goldstar microwave stoped working. No display, its dead. Is their an internal fuse and where is it located. Thanks

You may have a blown internal fuse. You''ll need to unplug the unit, remove the outside cover and follow the line cord and you should find the fuse.

Replace it with the EXACT same value that was labeled on the original fuse. You'll probably be able to find a replacement at any Radio Shack store or hardware store.

Replace the cover and plug the unit back in. Hopefully nothing was damaged and the unit will play again.

Please let me know if I can be of further assistance to you.

Good luck!
