Power Acoustik Answered Questions & Fixed Issues

if you have a 12 volts ac/dc adapter you can hook the 3 wires Black for negative, Red and yellow for positive and the stereo will turn on.

it's like a battery. you run it in parallel (run power from battery + to capacitor + then from capacitor + to ampplifier +) battery, capacitor, and amp each has its own ground (black or -). you don't need a remote wire. it only stores electricity until the amplifier needs extra juice (so your headlights won't dim).

have power? continuity tester available at stereo shop and retail stores. one end goes on your power wire, the other on a good ground.
have a good ground? i found under the big bolt that hold the seat belt in place works good in most cars/trucks.
make sure your remote wire is turned on.
check fuses in the amp.

Make sure the yellow wire is going to a source that is still hot when the key is turned off. The yellow wire controls the memory and must have voltage going to it all of the time.

Hi,

This is a car audio video unit
So to connect this unit electrically, they usually require 3 wires for power for it to switch on.

• The thick black wire is a earth or negative wire, which connects to the negative side of the battery or to the body of the car.
• Then there is a red and yellow wire.
• The thicker of the 2 wires red or yellow is constant 12volt power, which should be connected to the positive side of the battery or to constant 12volts in the car wiring plug.
• The other red or yellow which is the thinner of the 2 is a accessory wire, which means it has 12 volt power only when you turn the key to accessory or motor running.
• So yes both RED and YELLOW require power for the unit to be on .
• This is for radio station presets so it doesn't loose memory when you turn the key off, otherwise every time you turn the key you would have to store your stations again.

I hope this helps you.
If so please leave a vote or comment.

Have a great day

Unless he connected the black to positive and the red and yellow to negative, it should not have fried his dvd player.

Depending on the PA FUBAR you have. The voice coil on those subs are DVC. Dual Voice Coil. You need to know a couple things. What kind of amp are you going to run on it. And what is the resistance (OHM) rating of each voice coil. MY two 12's are dual 4 ohm. Meaning that there are essentially 4 speakers to hook up. My amp currently is not 2 ohm stable in bridged. So what I did is run each speaker in parallel (red2red,black2black) then run to the box terminal. So now the dual 4 ohm voice coils are basically 2 ohm. I have 2 speakers. Now I hook the box up in series. To bring the now two 2 ohm speakers into one 4 ohm speaker. This is called series/parallel setup. My amp sees this box as 1 channel @ 4ohms. The downfall to this is the output of the amp is divided up into each speaker. So instead of sending all 1400 watts to one sub. I will send 700 to each sub. But here is a catch. even though each speaker is half the total wattage it will still be 3db louder. Meaning it will be as loud as 1 sub running 1400 watts. To conclude i need to know how many of those subs you are going to run on the amp.. And the model number of the amp so I can match up your wiring.

I find that most Amps that does this the transistors nearest the to the B+ side of the Amp is bad. there are anywhere from 4 to 6 a side and if you know anything of these you can check them remove and replace them. I have a different problem. the prower light comes on and the goes off and I am trying to find a schematic to trace down the problem. if I find it I can talk U through it and show pics.

heat ur solder up an remove the power from where it is

contact the manufacture the should have the part

You can use a USB Flash drive or SD/MMC Card or an iPod to view files (Pictures,Videos,Music files..etc) in the player.Touch the icons [USB], [SD CARD], [IPOD] according to which device you are using.The corresponding modes are switched automatically by the player when it detects one of the above devices.The player will switch to [RADIO] mode automatically when the above devices are disconnected and if there is no Disc in the player or to the [DVD] mode if there is a Disc inserted.You can view the detailed description in the following link ( http://www.poweracoustik.com/pa2006/manual%20and%20catalog/source/PTID-7002NR.pdf ).Your valuable feedback would be appreciated.Good Luck.

• You double the watts to the speaker for the channels bridged. This also depends on the Ohms of the speakers being used. The lower the Ohms of the speakers used in relation to the Ohms of the amp also increases the watt output of the amp.

Once you plug in your iphone and set it to play your song(s). Set your car player for AUX this will then pick up the device playing into the direct port. Hope this helps Fix ya up.

you can get parts from digikey.com.

look at the transistor you want to replace, they all have part numbers on em.

type it into the search frame on the site.

Sounds like going over the tracks might have knocked a wire lose behind the dash. The only way to know would be to take out your head unit to reveal what's behind it. Make sure all the cables are securely fastened and it should work again.

Here, use the following link. It will take you to the troubleshooting on page 36. I hope this helps, let me know if you still have any problems.

your pink wire is not conected to ground

Sounds like you need to run a heavier Gauge wire for power source. If power source wire is too small, you will get a voltage drop. Check your source wire gauge compared to connector on equalizer. You may end up having to run a heavier gauge direct to battery, with fuse link in line. See what the amp requirements are in manual, and make sure wire is heavier than minimal. Example: if 15 amp required, I'd go to 12 gauge minimum, or to be safe 10 gauge. (longer the run, heavier the wire.) Be sure all connections are good as well.

What regulators are you talking about?

go to the video setting on the menu select the color system compatible with monitor you installed.there are different color system in a monitor they called pal,pal secam, me secam ntsc etc.select the proper video setting...good luck let me know how it goes...
