So, to follow up, I got everything working properly again. If you refer to the photos I sent of the amp internals, you can see there is that white residue. What I didn’t get the chance to get a photo of was the bottom side of the board, which had some mild corrosion as well. I cleaned the board...

Maybe so, I'm certainly no technician. I did read that, it does not hurt to clean it up a little bit with Q-tips and isopropyl alcohol, very lightly. I went ahead and cleaned it, there was certainly some corrosion on some of the components inside the amp. Not banking on that, but, I figured it...

this is the noise I’m talking about by the way. I just left work and on my way home the system sounded fantastic. As I pulled into the driveway it reverted to sounding like this, take a listen: Seems as though I may have found some water damage after pulling the amp apart? At least it seems...

Sorry, forgot to hit the reply button! But let me give these things a try and come back to it. If you have any other suggestions let me know! My reply earlier is somewhere on the thread lol.

I believe so! And sounds like we are alike lol. So yeah, I’m just facing issues with the sub amp. It’s likely that my chassis ground is screwed. I’ll have to investigate that as well. There are still a lot of unknowns, but I can say the connection at the amp ground is clean, there is no...

No, not always, in fact very rarely does that work. It’s almost as if the longer my car sits, the next time it starts up everything functions properly for anywhere from a minute to two hours. If I don’t start it for a day or two, then revisit my issue, it works. Then out of the blue it suddenly...

I was thinking the same, and yes I definitely agree with the JVC issues. It’s hard to let go of a deck that’s treated me so well over the years, I am not a man of change lol. But, I did forget to mention I got a clone of the deck I’m using. It was used, but I figured it was cheap and wouldn’t...

I will give this a try, I thought about trying this but I wasn’t entirely sure if I can fabricate one, but it’s probably best to just purchase one. I’ll update you after I try this!

So, to begin, I'll list what I'm running for my system. Vehicle: 2002 Subaru Impreza Wagon (this is somewhat immaterial because I'm not using any of the original sound system, door speakers, amp and all) Head Unit: JVC KD-R520 Speaker Amp: Rockford Fosgate R250X4 Prime 4-Channel Sub Amp: DB...
