I would check C25 & 26. Make sure the solder has not broken.

To wire a Dean Edge bass guitar with four pots (potentiometers) and a battery, you will need to follow the wiring diagram for the specific model of your bass guitar. Here is a general overview of the wiring process:

1. Start by connecting the ground wires to the pots and the battery. The ground wires should be connected to the ground terminal on each pot and the negative terminal on the battery.
2. Next, connect the power wires to the pots and the battery. The power wires should be connected to the positive terminal on the battery and to the power terminal on each pot.
3. Connect the pickup wires to the pots and the output jack. The pickup wires should be connected to the pickup terminals on the pots and to the input terminals on the output jack.
4. Connect the control wires to the pots and the output jack. The control wires should be connected to the control terminals on the pots and to the output terminals on the output jack.
5. Test the wiring to make sure everything is working properly. If there are any issues with the wiring, you may need to double-check your connections or consult the wiring diagram for your specific bass guitar model.

It is recommended that you follow the wiring diagram provided by Dean or consult a qualified technician if you are not comfortable wiring the bass guitar yourself. Improper wiring can damage the guitar and potentially pose a safety hazard.

A silly suggestion is to plug in a different guitar and see if the problem still happens. Have you checked the link your using to connect to the amp? For example is it a faulty lead, a loose jack plug on the end of the lead or an intermittent signal from a wireless connection? You could also check the pickups on the actual bass guitar. Pick ups don't often cause issues but they can become faulty because of age, corrosion, short circuits and if they're badly fitted.

Cheap little battery powered amplifier. Sound OK to me.

Because it starts after 10 minutes, a ground problem is not likely. If you've eliminated cord problems then I would replace the power supply filter caps. If you are not solder 'savvey' then best take it to a tech. I bet that does it.

Are you sure you have the model name correct? I see all kinds of Dean Edge basses, but no mention anywhere of a Forage. How old is this model?

Broken cable inside, possibly at the output jack? Or a failed potentiometer (volume or tone) Pull the back plate off, and have a look at the wiring, Trace it with an ohmmeter to check for continuity at each step. https://www.premierguitar.com/articles/23496-guitar-shop---five-ways-to-use-a-digital-multimeter

Have you put strings through tuning heads and folded them back on themselves and tightened them up to standard tuning?

No idea how myself. I tried a Google search and found several KB24 discussions, but you would need to communicate with people on those type of web sites to see if someone can assist you. https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/162841-kay-bass-kb24-any-info-please/ https://www.talkbass.com/threads/30-years-today-what-a-journey.1300807/

Try asking google

I hate active electronics in musical instruments for that very reason! My best advice is to make sure the battery is actually good. If it is, change cables. If it still doesn't work, I would suspect the battery shut-off switch that disconnects the battery when you pull the cable out. Good luck!

Unfamiliar with it, but free manual at the link below might be of some assistance. https://www.manualslib.com/manual/32999/Crate-Bx-80.html Crate BX 80 Owner Manual
