Well this morning everything was great but all of the sudden the speedometer went to zero and the over drive light started flashing and the transmission dosent know what gear to stay in if it shifts at all. And now the winshield whippers won't work. It's a real big cluster all at once. I started a thread but haven't had any answers yet. Untill my dad said it could be that the sub vibrated something lose like a sensor, which leads me to this thread...

Well the only reason is cause when I turn it up the whole dash vibrates and everything. But do you have any ideas on what it could be? A certain sensor maybe?

For some reason the windshield whippers won't work, the transmission doset know what gear to stay in and the speedometer stays on zero. And the over drive lights starts blinking after the transmission shifts into second. And thats After cranking the truck. But it all worked fine last night.

Guages and wipers are a fuse in the dash panel fuse box.

Default Re: Show Your System

Easy little setup I did. Not going to rip holes in my roof, or do any hair tricks, but that's not what I was after. It's just a nice, well balanced system that can play loud & clear.

JVC digital media player
Clarion EQ
Power Acoustik 4ch class d amp
2x West Coast Customs 6x8 components
Alpine Type R 8"

Front 2 channels are running the 4 doors, rear 2 are bridged to run the sub @ 4 ohms. Amp is mounted under the cupholder/cubby section of my expo center console. I mounted the components as coaxials, I didn't really want to cut into my door panels, and just to keep more of a stealth install. Sub is in a .5 cu ft sealed downfiring box, 3/4" mdf.

The box might be too big, I may play around with adding some wood to the inside to cut the volume down and see how it sounds. I'm also really curious as to how it would sound in a ported box, but I didn't have enough wood to make that, so just went with sealed for now. Overall though I'm pretty pleased with it.

Just one small gripe about the EQ, the leds are blindingly bright at night, wish they had a dimmer, or even an off switch would be better, and I'd prefer green, but whatever, it sounds good.
