Amplifier power light will not turn on. subwoofers will not work.
I have subwoofers in the trunk of my car. The amplifier was working for a while but then shut off out of no where. All the lights are still on on the amplfier, except for the power light. The green light does not come on. I checked the ground, and the fuses and all seem intact.

Re: Amplifier power light will not turn on. subwoofers...
Recheck the fuse on the amp, if the fuse is good, try replacing it anyway, if that doesn't work your amp has blown an internal component, (most likely an output transistor). it is probably cheaper to replace the amp than repair it.

Check your owner's manual for a Factory Reset, or Return to Default. Try that first. If it still doesn't work, try disconnecting the sub completely, and see it that resolves the issue.
It sounds to me like your amplifier is getting caught in a loop-- the heartbeat is the subwoofer catching a surge of power from the amplifier. Make sure all of your connections are solid. If they are, try using the amplifier in another vehicle that is already set up for an amplifier. If it does not work, you may need to spring for a new amplifier.
Hi, the amplifier of the Ford Premium sound system is located in the trunk of the Taurus. Open the trunk and locate the amp behind the rear seats. Pull the carpeting away from the rear panel to access the amplifier. Disconnect the cables (power supply, signal cable and turn-on lead) from the amplifier.
Use a Phillips-head screwdriver to remove the four screws on the amplifier mounting bracket and remove the amplifier.
Remove the wiring to the amplifier either by pulling them through the trunk opening or via the panels at the door openings. If you choose to remove the cables from the door openings, you will need to remove the panels on both sides of the Taurus as the power supply cable and signal cables will be routed on opposite sides of the vehicle to prevent interference.
You want to run an amplifier kit = rca cables from head unit to the amp, ground to the chassis, power to the battery and remote wire from the head unit to the inside of your trunk. If you have to you'll need to mount your amplifier to your subwoofer box or build a mounting board for the amplifier.
I have a similar problem on Audi A6 2.5 tdi year 2000, is just that my subwoofer is working fine, but the rear speakers have no sound and the rear satellites on the same ciruits are working just fine, I cannot explain this! I have taken apart the rear speaker and teasted with an ipod and one is working fine but the other is dead! I don t know if there is any connection, or there is a filter for the rear speakers and if one speaker is dead there will be no sound on the other speaker! but as i said on the same cables satelites are working well!
If you turn the power off and restart, the most logical answer i know of is your amplifier is going bad. I am not sure of the model and brand of your amplifier, but there should be a protection light on the amplifier somewhere that will most likely be on, caused by overloading the amplifier.
You will most likely have to replace the amplifier, or check with the manufacturer to find out if they can repair it or help to further diagnose the problem.
