5 Troubleshooting

KEY

Note: For further assistance with trou-
bleshooting your amplifi er, consult the
Crown Amplifi er Application Guide,
available from the Crown website at
www.crownaudio.com, or contact the
Crown Technical Support Group.

CONDITION: Normal operation.

POSSIBLE REASON:

• This is normal operation for your amp.

CONDITION: No power to the
amplifi er.

POSSIBLE REASON:

• The amplifi er’s “power” switch is off.

• The amplifi er is not plugged into the

power receptacle.

• The amplifi er’s high-voltage power supply

fuse has blown. Fuse NOT user-replace-
able. Return amp to Crown or an
authorized Crown Service Center for
servicing.

CONDITION: No sound.

POSSIBLE REASON:

• The amplifi er has just been turned on and

is still in the 4-second turn-on delay.

• No input signal.

• Input signal level is very low.

• Level controls are turned down.

• Speakers

not

connected.

CONDITION: Distorted sound.

POSSIBLE REASON:

• Input signal level is too high. Turn down

your amplifi er level controls. NOTE: Your
amplifi er should never be operated at
a level which causes the Clip LEDs to
illuminate constantly.

• Amplifer is too hot. Turn down input

signal level to allow ampifi er to return
to normal operating temperature. Check
speaker loads for short-circuits or too low
impedance level.
