I am not real familiar with car audio and I am having been experiencing a problem that has recently started occurring. My setup consists of an Alpine head unit and an 850 watt Phoenix Gold Amp that powers my 4 infinity kappa door speakers.
This setup has worked great for over the year that I have had it until the other day. When I turn the HU on it works for about 10-30 seconds and then all I get is a "clicking" repetition of distortion. The distortion doesn't change with volume and doesn’t seem to matter if it is on tuner/Cd.
The Amp is getting power. I have the amp mounted to the back passenger side seat. I noticed when I was experiencing this problem that when the rear pass door was open it stopped until I closed the door. As far as I know none of the wires for the amp run down that side of the car (I had Ultimate Electronics install the HU/Amp).
Any suggestions on where to start troubleshooting?
