I have this amp in for repair. Ive never seen an amp do this before.
The problem with this amp is when u hook it up it will play fine until u shut the car off and then turn it back on.
For example say your running this amp in your car everything is working like it should . Then you stop at a store shut the car off go in get what u need come back out start the car up And the amp will power up but will have no output.
The only way to get the amp back working again is to unplug the rca's shut the head unit off then turn the head unit back on and plug the rca's back in then the amp will work again til u shut the car off.
If this makes any sense.
Wondering what the problem might be and where to begin to check?

Yes i can get to do it it on the bench as well. I opened it up and found it had a defective output. Would this cause the problem or is ther something more possibly wrong?
Unless the output was leaking (not completely shorted) or there was a fault in the protection circuit, I don't see how the output could cause it. Repair the channel to see if that solves your problem.
Perry,
Somemore checking into this amp i noticed some resistors and transistors that are badly burnt to the point i can read them. Wondering if you know what values i need?

just had one of em amps opened this morning ...was checking it 4 a friend...wish i had seen this b4 ..could have hepled.
Im working on this amp again. They are using 20 ohm resistors with 1% tolerance.
Closest thing i have right now is a 22 ohm resistor Wondering will the 22 ohm work?

For the audio drivers?
They should work. You could use them for testing and if there are no other problems, you could order the correct ones.

Im still repairing this amp. In one section of the amp the resistors and transistors burnt when they burnt they also took the some of the pads along with it. I can figure out where some of the traces went .
1 Side of R133 connects to Q105 in this amp I cannot tell where the other sides of R133 connects since the board is damaged.
Would the schematic tell me where it connects or not?

Is it possibly tied to Q106? I have the P4004 schematic and R133 also ties to R137 and R126 and collector of Q108. Not sure how close the two boards are though. I sent a request to RF for the schematic to verify.
