Symptom Probable Cause Action To Take
Poor bass response
Crossover set incorrectly Reset crossovers . Refer to the Internal Cross-
over Configuration section of this manual for
detailed instructions .
Impedance load at amplifier is
too low . Check speaker impedance load if below 2 Ω,
rewire speakers to achieve higher impedance
.
Battery fuse blowing
Short in power wire or incor-
rect wiring . Check power wires and ground connections
and repair or replace as needed .
Fuse used is smaller than rec-
ommended . Replace with proper fuse size .
Actual current exceeds fuse
rating . Check speaker impedance load if below 2 Ω,
rewire speakers to achieve higher impedance
.
