TROUBLE SHOOTING

AMPLIFIER TURNS DOWN

Both excessive temperature and low impedance (or short circuit)

conditions will activate the amplifier's AM IV protection circuitry, which

turns down the amplifier's output. When the amplifier cools down, or

the impedance is corrected, the AM IV will restore full power.

If your amp is turning down check your speakers and wiring for low

impedance and short circuits.Also,ensure that there is nothing blocking

the normal convective airflow of the amplifier. No obstruction should

be within 2" of the amplifier on all sides.

NOTE: Low battery voltage will cause the amplifier to run warmer.

NO SOUND ON BANDPASS CHANNELS

Be sure that crossover points are

set properly. Is the highpass set

at a higher frequency than the

lowpass or the lowpass set lower

than the highpass, creating a no

pass?

YES

Readjust crossovers and then

test system again.

STILL NO SOUND - See your Authorized

PrecisionPower

Dealer or Call

.

NO

Check speaker wiring for short

circuits or loose connections. Be

sure that powerlock plugs are in

place properly (screws facing up)

and observe correct wiring

diagram.

NO SOUND IN BRIDGED MODE

Check speaker wiring for short circuits or loose connections. Be

sure that powerlock plugs are in place properly (screws facing up)

and observe correct wiring diagram.
