Protect is Output side plain and simple ...
Shorts will pop the fuse , No ground/ No protect light , No Power no protect light ... No Remote line no power to amp ...

Alright smart ass then why is it when my power touched my ground it goes into protect mode? and yes i probably do have to big of a fuse, but this one does not blow. I had a 80 and blew them all day, put the 100 in there and solved everything. |

Hmmm I've owned my own shop was factory authorized to service 15+ brands of car audio and access to all factory schematics and NEVER saw any type of input monitorig to go into protect (except overvoltage crowbar protection 15 volt plus input voltage) Also an Electrical and electronic engineer , but hey I guess I don't know anything
Ever think that the spark/arc might have shocked the output phase of the amp ... |
