k31th less WHY; more WOT Site Developer 28,291 Member For: 16y 9d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 18/04/19 06:35 AM Share Posted 18/04/19 06:35 AM sounds like a loose connector in the wiring somewhere... I'd be taking the ICC out to have a look at the pins/connector below/behind it. did the entire ICC die when this happens? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MBAF Bronze Donating Members 2,156 Member For: 7y 8m 4d Posted 18/04/19 08:18 AM Share Posted 18/04/19 08:18 AM assuming the sub is amplified, and working the shows the ICC is transmitting audio. If all speakers stop working at the same time, for it to be a wire it would have to be power/earth related at the factory amp or an aftermarket (if it has one) each speaker is driven individually so there will be a common point. If it has aftermarket amps it will have RCA leads and HLLC hidden somewhere, that's where I would be looking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
