right, last week my subs were going on and off like there was a loose wire, they have now gone completely off, ive checked all the wires and they are all tight, the only wire i can see that is out is a green and grey one in the back of the cd player but i dont know if that was already like that? help please :)

What I wud do is take everything out then all back in again if it still does it try a different amp
If it jus goes off over bumps is ur headunit shockproof?

does your radio go off over bumps? as i had that happen to my old corsa, and it ended up being the wire that went to the switched live, so i wired it up the other way behind the radio so i had to turn it on and off via the button on the radio itself and it was fine then.

I suggest you replace your old wires with new ones, could be a breakage in one of the wires, thats y it intermitent and comes on when gone over bumps. If ws the fuse not work at all as they would be no connection. :)

cheers for the ideas guys, sometimes it wasnt just bumps though it was going around corners that didnt even lean the car? i dont really want to be pulling it all apart if possible :/
