My Kicker subwoofer just quit working out of the blue today. When I got home, I disconnected the cabin speakers from the amp and left only the sub connected. I cranked it wide open and it started working. Almost like it broke loose or something. I turned it off for a minute and then back on and same thing, not working again. Cranked it up again and it worked again. Anyone know what causes this?

Sounds like maybe the amp is the culprit.

After I crank it up and it comes on, it works fine at any volume.

The subwoofer should either work or not. Unless it’s seriously corroded. It sounds like the amp is causing the issues. The power regulation circuitry might be having issues which is overcomes when it reaches a certain threshold. @MLA would know best.

What are you cranking? Master volume or a woofer level? Whats the voltage at the amp, while the system is on? Amps are voltage sensitive.
When I crank the master volume all the way up, it's like it unfreezes or something and starts working.Quote:
