OK so I finally get time to wire up half my stereo system, I just wanted to get some tunes playing. I have a pyle head unit (nothing fancy, PLCD3MR) wired through a terminal strip and grounded to the auxiallary battery and did the same with the pyle amp (PLMRA620 2000W 6 channel) it's also grounded back to the same battery. I connected the remote/power attena wire to the amp. Turn everything on, radio comes on but the amp does not, no power lights. Checked the voltage on the power wire, 12.7V. With the radio on the voltage at the remote wire is about 4.6V.
So I decided to try my other amp in the same position, Krypt 4 channel 125.4, and got similar results. This amp would not come on either, but i did hear its internal fan kick on when I turned on the head unit. I tried Pyle's tech support line but just got put on hold. Surely both amps can't be bad at the same time. This is my first stereo install so I am probably missing something.
thanks for any help.
