I checked for power at the sub with a test light and there is nothing, no9 power at all to the subLooked through all the fuses and are all good, I actually couldnt find a seperate fuse for the sub but all fuses are good.I even resorted to the owners manual but still nothing.Everything else seems to work fine as it should just no subwoofer. any help would be greatly appreciated.Kane

I think there is a separate sub connector on the back of the power unit in the dash. There was in the earlier Premium systems. I have known these to be left off or drop out. This will cause the problem.2. Put an ohm meter across the sub terminals and check you can hear a "click" when you touch the probes. This puts 1.5Volts DC across the terminals and prooves that the subbie is not open circuit. You should read low impedance and hear the "click" and the meter should show almost short circuit. Other than that it could be something in the wiring or the power unit is stuffed.Good luck

kane Member 5 Member For: 15y 7m 14d Posted 30/05/11 11:33 AM Author Posted 30/05/11 11:33 AM Thanks Pete a. I shall do those tests tomoro. When you refer to the plug at the back of the unit for the sub, are you refering to the 5/6 plugs along the bottom of the unit or part of the BEM plug at the back? And fordriver I also thought there but there is a harness of around ten wires coming out of the amp. Surely the sub itself does not need all this wiring.

Found the amp totally missing! Spoke to the dealer they are going to work some out! Yeah right! Has anybody got pics of stock premium amp and connectors?

I found the yellow connector under the parcel shelf but nothing else
