Re: momstang rebuild begins.

I am still just trying to get out of the house for the alignment. I switched up my diet(vegitarian) and quit taking one of my meds to see if it would help my digestive crap and the jury is still out. If I can get that done and then get it out for some drives to let the holley learn what it needs I ...

Re: What PG amps are simular in size/layout to ZX450 ?

Yes very happy with it, has always done me well. Just checking my options in case I cannot get it fixed. I am going to try to get it repaired. I'm in Canada so don't have the repair network like you do in the US. Not sure what kind of shop to take it to have it repaired. Local stereo shops no doubt...

sometimes the universe is just against you. I made an appointment with a shop that is closest to my house. I still didn't trust the two on the car as its close but the steering wheel is at 2 o'clock when going straight so I didn't want to go down the highway to the shops I might normally go to. Thi...

Re: ZX475 Hi Idle Current / Heat

These are the test points for each channel. You don't have to have the amp out of the case. You can measure directly across the emitter resistors like you did, but the amp should be at thermal equilibrium when testing, and that's hard to do with it upside down. 5mv is way higher than they should be...

Re: momstang rebuild begins.

It turns out I wired the drivers side perfect but wired the passenger side perfectly backwards and swapped both the input and the output. This way the switch was backwards, but so was the output so it worked correctly but then when it went to automatic control it was just backwards. Slowly knocking...

I guess there is more than one way to skin a cat huh? I have always put them in the door myself if the switches were located there but after some thought its about the same number of wires to go through to the door. I just thought the power/trigger wires were smaller and easier than the switch wire...

at that point when I make the speaker mount I could not help but think that not sure why but it might look cool to light up the area around the speaker. After a little thought I realized I could use the radar detector led output to light it up red when it alerts. So I used my cnc to make some acryl...
