Need some help...
Today, I got in my truck to make a run uptown and to my surprise, the sound coming out of my speakers was really bad! I got out of the truck to check the speakers and found that both 6x9 door speakers weren't working. All the rest were working, but sounded terrible. I checked the AMP 25 fuse under the hood, and the inline fuse..all were good. I even pulled the neg battery cable overnight hoping it would reset the system..but to no avail. I think my AMP has taken a dump on me and isn't working. I wanted to upgrade my speakers and amp to a better sounding unit anyway, but now this. Has anyone else had this problem and is there an alternative amp to run your speakers that is compatible with the 8.4 UCONNECT System. I was looking at the 77KICKAB Kicker Amp (8 channel) for the Jeeps that looks like a direct plug in for my Ram. I believe I read on the mopar site that this fits the Rams as well, I just don't know if it will run my speakers properly because I AM NOT sound system knowledgeable at all. I also contacted Crutchfield, and the suggested a JL 4 Channel AMP with Kicker or Infinity 2 or 3 ohm speakers. They also told me the JL AMP would work with the 8.4 touchscreen system..which I'm not so sure about.
