My "Power Acoustik OV2-420" has a problem. Some advice please!!!
Dar educated individuals,When a friend of mine got to the volume knob on my cd player, the amp worked for a while, but when i found that the fuse had been broke, i replaced the fuse. The thing is, when i replaced the fuse (15 amp), the red light came on instantly. But,after about 30 seconds at low volume,with a "heartbeat" i will describe, the new fuse broke!!! Now heres what the "heartbeat" is: the indicator light will remain red for about 5-6 seconds, then suddenly turn green for about a second. While the light is green, my pioneer sub seems to make a heartbeat sound. After the "heartbeat" the light will turn red again. Any ideas? -Thanks Tony C
