My Kenwood KAC-9103D is not getting any power, when I tried it on a seperate set of gauge wires, still no results. My friends Sony Xplode is running fine with on both sets of gauges. So we know it is not the wireing in teh car, and both subs work. The light doesnt power on, the fan doesnt come on, and it is hooked up correctly. The last thing that happened, was my grounding cable, accedently came loose somehow, and then when trying too put it in, it touched the Power wire, and I heard a crack, from then on out it has not worked. I have checked teh fuses, they are fine. Wiring fine. It must be the amp. We looked online and some people say, that our ground connection has come unsoldered. We took apart the amp, and could not find a circuit map, and thus could not locate where anything was unsoldered without the map. We know where the ground connection is, and it looks perfectly fine. Any suggestions?

use a multimeter to check for power on the +ve wire, could be your fuse, it only rus a sec when you jumper the remote to +ve because the remote cannot give out the nessary current to run the amp.

it sounds to me like its burnt.but with some amps the screws that hold it in place have to be screwed into the car chassisfor grounding. be careful not to srewe into hidden wires.

Hi There.

When you say the 40 Amp fuse blew. Was it your mains battery fuse or was it the fuse on the amplifier? If it was the fuse on the amplifier then you may have hurt the amplifier. The Kenwood KAC-8101D is a 1000 Watt monoblock amplifier. Therefore if you say that 1 of your woofers is not playing, then it is almost certainly blown if you are sure it is connected correctly. Try disconnecting it and only running the woofer that tries to play. If this woofer is still working correctly, you will notice a drastic drop if the sound of your bass. The reason for this is because you have changed the impedance load on your amplifier due to the fact that the other woofer is not working. Have your working woofer checked and replace the faulty woofer then you should be banging again.

Hope this helps!!
