i have an amp thats all hooked up the red light come on but when i hook up my sub it doesnt play help

your gunna need to give us alil more than that. sometimes a red light means the amps turned on, sometimes it means its in protection mode, you need to give us the make and model of amp.

Put a 9v batt to your sub and see if your sub is okay. Run through a list for us so we know you have everything hooked up right. What kinda amp and sub are they?

its a 12"sony xplod sub, the subs alright......i cut the source wire and now the amp just blows the fuses the amp is a v3 200watt is that anygood??

Probably a blown amp.

whats the source wire for? could i have the thing hooked up wrong ?

now its bumping when the car is off and the radio off, every 5 seconds it will bump

My freind's amp turns on also. But it is blown internally.

I would get a new amp, sony sucks.

How do you have this thing hooked up? Do you have a good ground? Right size wire for power and ground? Right size fuse. How do you have your gains set on the amp? No that amp is not good. It is from walmart. And that sony sub isn't great ether. If you wanna keep the sub. Ditch the amp and look into a JBL 300.1 or JBL 150.2 that should get you bumpin.

how much is that amp?
