Troubleshooting

Operation

ADJUSTING GAIN

To adjust the gain setting, turn the amplifier gains all the way down. Turn the source unit volume
up until distortion is audible and then turn it down a bit until the distortion is inaudible. Next, turn
the amplifier gain setting until once again distortion is audible and then back it down until the
distortion is inaudible.
NOTE: For a more in depth setting procedure, contact Lightning Audio Technical Support.

ADJUSTING CROSSOVER (X-OVER)

Placing the switch in the HPF position sets the amplifier to the High Pass mode, enabling
frequencies above the cut-off point to pass, adjustable between 40-400Hz.

Placing the switch in the FULL position sets the amplifier to the All Pass mode, preventing any
crossover adjustment, allowing all frequencies to pass..

Placing the switch in the LPF position sets the amplifier to the Low Pass mode, enabling
frequencies below the cut-off point to pass, adjustable between 40-400Hz.

Turn the crossover adjustment knob all the way down. With the system playing at normal
listening level, turn the crossover adjustment knob up slowly until the desired crossover point is
achieved.

Symptom

Diagnosis

Remedy

Amplifier does not
turn on.

Amplifier Noise

(Turn-On Pop)

Engine Noise

B+ or REM not between 10.5 and
15.5 volts or no voltage present

Amplifier is not properly grounded.

Voltage spike from source unit is
entering amplifier’s input

Noise is radiating into signal cables

Check the alternator, battery, fuse,
and wiring and repair as necessary

Check wiring and repair as necessary

Connect turn-on module to REM
terminal if pops are eliminated with
no input signal to amplifier

Re-route signal cables away from
sources of high current
