Hi, I've installed a subwoofer in my car with an amp, the wiring was already there (power, earth, amp wires and remote) and I have got it all connected ok.
My headunit has started acting strange, it constantly flickers on and off, even with the ignition switched all the way off. When the car is running it flickers quicker and there is rapid pulse beat from the sub (which I assume is from it constantly loosing and regaining power), none of the buttons respond and it won't come on long enough for me to do anything.
It did stop doing it for aprox 30 mins untill I turned up the volume to near max to test it and it has been doing it constantly since (I've disconnected the headunit overnight).
I have tried resetting the headunit and triple checked all of the connections.
Before I had a sub/amp the headunit used to do this very occasionally when the volume was turned very high, it always turned back on long enough for me to quickly turn the volume down and then it was back to normal.
I have tried a friends headunit aswell and it does exactly the same so I know it's not my headunit. The headunit is JVC if that helps?
Any help or advice will be greatly apprieciated.
Cheers, Ed.
P.S. I have attempted becoming a member so I could post this in the ICE forum but I was told that there's a problem with Paypal atm and no one can join untill it's sorted.
