Hope you enjoy this one, unusual fault but probably something you may see from time to time in JL amps! Bespoke and complicated, and more to go wrong...

it's quit simple 😁 you can use your multi meter and test continuity between your cicuts if you look at the trace you'll see some spots that have solder on these dots but nothing's there's those are for checking the traces but can be used for diagnosis and finding the area it should be dead parts will trigger the meter to buzz at you

I am currently running this amp in my vehicle, sounds fantastic of course 👌🏽. Small powerful amplifier. It's pretty surprising what this tiny amp is capable of producing. Thanks for the video. I can refer back here if I should ever run into problems.

Hi there barevids. I've been a long time fan of yours and I enjoy your content. Mouser UK will have the UCC28C40 as well as soon having the IRS2092. I hope that helps with your search for replacement parts 🙂. Arrow, Digikey, and Mouser will have most if not everything if you search all three sites. I look forward to your repairs in the future.

@barevids 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks! The issue with these sites is postage. Even though mouser has a UK site, parts come from overseas. Same with digikey and arrow. The 3 suppliers I rely on are RS, Farnell and mercateo. I'll check them out tho and if shipping is sensible I'll stock up. Thanks! 😊

I got the same amp. Bought if refurbished 10 years ago. It’s a great amp! One issue, when there is no music (ie mute), it’s noisey as hell.

@Craig C - possibly bad filter cap(s). Could also be something else. If you're confident in opening it up, try to find any disfigured capacitor....hth. Otherwise, you may have to send it to barevids!!

Hey nice work bud! What kind of heat gun are you using there for desoldering the chips and resistors ? And did you make the fine point tip for concentrating the heat or that’s sold with it ?

@c4love 7 ай бұрын

When you hit your foot pedal to turn amps on for testing how many amps do use to switch them on? I see volts at like 12.x volt but what about current/amperage?

I have a slash JL 500/1 and it turns on but it takes time and then it shuts off. Can you give a guess what could be the problem or direct me what to look at if I open it up? Thx

@3rdaxis649 2 жыл бұрын

Wow what a pain, incredible work. If you had too (Because you can't find a replacement and/or you want more dependability) could you have simply bypassed that chip so it only uses remote turn-on only?

@barevids 2 жыл бұрын

Nah since the chip controls pwm for the z44n aux Mosfet 😔 could probably use a different pwm chip tho worse case scenario.

I love both but , JL is a bit like BMW . They do the same job as anything else . They're over engineered for the sake of charging more money which just adds more complications to diagnosis and repair.

QUESTION ,CAN I CUT ALL POWER TO AMPS EVERYTIME I PARK CAR ? OR IS IT BAD TO CYCLE THE RAIL CAPS EVERYTIME I PARK

@barevids 2 жыл бұрын

Why you want to do that?

@orangejjay 2 жыл бұрын

You don't need to cut power to anything when you park. The 12v+ remote wire powers the amps on and off when needed. Unless you're jumping the battery or replacing the amps, no need to cut power.
