Popping sub
« on: 04 April 2013, 10:19 »
Installed my vibe active sub last night, works fine, apart from 1 problem, when you turn the ignition on and off, with the head unit turned off the sub makes a popping noise, Any ideas what could be casuing this?

How have you wired the sub? It shouild have a live feed direct from the battery (fused) and earthed properly.

Have you checked the remote lead (usually blue) from the headunit to the sub?

Not much to check, looks fine to me, may strip it all out and start again
