I have a Visonik car amp. Mod# VB10PKG & need a wiring diagram

I suggest checking what ohm load you're presenting to that amp. go to www.the12volt.com and find the subwoofer wiring diagram and choosing the amount of subs you have on it and then the impedence of each one. you're probably sending too low of an ohm load to the amp this would cause it to go into protection quite frequently and eventually stay in protection.

Well you have a high impedance path to your amp. If you have an inline fuse that should have blown. Car batteries don't have a current limiting feature HA The only explanation would be that the amount of current passing through the wire is causing a large voltage drop due to a large impedance. What gauge wire are you using? Here is an example.

18 ft of 8 gauge wire would have to be passing about 400 Amps of DC current to yield a voltage drop of that magnitude. The wire would melt and all hell would break loose. So there has to be a break in your wire somewhere.

go with an 8GA wire and see what that does for you because the battery is sending power to an amp but the amp cannot transfer all of that power anywhere without speakers being ran to it if you think 8GA is to small then try running a fuse in with your 4GA

i would wire the coils of each sub in series which would yield an 8 ohm resistive load per sub - and then wire the subs in parallel to the amp which would bring the resistance back to 4 ohms for a bridged load which will give you max power handling from the subs and draw the full power of the amp at the same time

Hello storres18,

If you have the Kicker model number 06CVX122, with dual 2ohm voice coils, they can be connected to a mono amp at 2ohms. First jumper the voice coils in series, the dotted positive (+) to the undotted negative (-) (or vice versa). Each sub is now 4ohms. Then wire both of the remaining positives and negatives together on the amp terminals (in parallel). The amp sees a 2ohm load. Here's the diagram:


If you have the Kicker model number 06CVX124 with dual 4ohm voice coils, they cannot be wired to present a 2ohm load. They can only be wired as a 1ohm load (too low for the amp) or as a 4ohm load (at reduced power). Here is the diagram of the 4ohm wiring:


Hope this helps.

honestly anything made by visonik is **** and i wouldent try wiring it like that it could have bad consequences do rca or call visonik and order a replacement

The head unit probably has 2 control wires. One has 12v when the signal source is the tuner. When you switch to the other sources, the antenna is not needed so the output to that wire is switched off (so the power antenna will go down).

Look for a wire marked amp control or something similar. It will have 12v output any time the head unit is on. Use that one to control your amplifiers.

Here is a link to visonik to download manuals.

If you let me know your model number of the sub, vehicle make and model, and brand and model of headunit or CD player you have then i can provide wiring color codes, recommended wire routing locations, etc...

It's fried. Repair costs are more than the amp is worth. Sorry, it's a lost cause.
