At times, your American Bass Audio amplifier may enter a "protection mode" as a safeguard against potential damage due to various issues such as overheating, short circuits, or wiring problems. If you find yourself needing to reset the protection circuitry of your American Bass Audio amplifier, here's a step-by-step guide to properly address the issue:

  1. Complete Disconnection: Begin by disconnecting all wiring connected to the amplifier. This includes the remote turn-on wire, RCA cables, speaker wires, and both the power and ground wires. It's crucial to disconnect these components to fully reset the amplifier's internal circuitry.

  2. Waiting Period: After disconnecting, allow the amplifier to sit untouched for several hours. This waiting period ensures that any residual power or charge within the unit dissipates completely, effectively resetting the system.

  3. Reinstallation: Once the waiting period is over, carefully reconnect all the previously disconnected wires according to your amplifier's installation guide. Ensure all connections are secure and correctly configured to prevent any immediate return to protection mode.

  4. Troubleshooting Persistent Issues: If, after following these steps, your amplifier still does not exit protection mode, it may indicate a deeper issue within the unit or installation. American Bass Audio is committed to providing exceptional support and service.
