imracerx Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 driving at low volume today and subs just cut out completely. i diagnosed that it is the sub output rca from HU at amp. the only thing i can think it could be aside from a bad unit, is the rcas somehow coming loose at head unit and since im having the hd, satellite, and steering controls added next weekend, i dont want to take the dash off to get to the rca's behind unit. can someone tell me if this has happened to them? I also did a unit reset and made sure the sub setting was on "on". thanks also, it seems like the unit killed my ipod nano i unplugged it and it reads "pioneer" on it and not functional. I starting to hate this unit. Help! Thanks John Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks John I got nuffin on the subs issue, but ipods are known to freeze at times when connected, resetting them, and they usually work fine for a long time after.

diaftia Posted January 19, 2009 Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 Sub volume is not at -6 or anything is it? If its set to on, gain setup to +6 and the EQ is set to something like powerful AND your RCA cables are good you have eliminated everything that it can be other than a failing AVIC or amplifier. Try using one of the other RCA cables or even connecting the sub RCA cables to the other speakers on a low volume to see if you get anything. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
