My amp went out in my LX it has crackles and pops. There is no volume control etc normal stuff. I spoke to OEM audio inc the gentleman said the amps are very robust they usually die from two things. First is liquid damage the second is from the fans getting clogged up and overheating as this forum shows.
He said if you can hear the fans on the amplifier running and there is no volume and/or the dvd screens on the headrests do not turn, on there may be another ecu thats the culprit. There is a ecu under the passenger seat that may be fried which is causing problems with the canbus communication between the head unit and amp.
Does this sound plausible? Could this be some peoples answer to no sound even after repairing the amp? Oh also they want $545 to repair the amp I am pretty sure $500ish.
