Problem with ICE in Indigo Marina

prakashchopper · 8th May 2007, 23:48

Dear ICE Gurus,

I have finally bought an indigo marina and fitted an ICE system.

My system consists of Pioneer headunit6950
Pioneer amp 6300 600w
Pioneer comp in front Ts c160
Pioneer sub woofer 306c
Pioneer 6x9 350w in the rear hatch

The system was running fine till about a few days back. Now when i put the system on, the front components start popping in and out and no sound comes from them. At times it starts playing alright on its own, I am really worried can anybody helpme ?

Get all wires checked. If that is ok check the amp.

The system works fine every time after the car runs for about 10 minutes. Quite a funny prob cant get the reason, wires have been checked and found alright

Well, the gurus are not here, so I'll fill in.

remove the speakers that you have fit in the rear hatch. You have cut the metal of the rear hatch to fit them right?
One of the wires is touching the metal body. Remove the 6X9 and tape up the terminals.

For good measure, tape up the terminals of the front speaker too.

Love your parents and respect your country. Be nice to women and dont let sex rule your mind. Follow these rules and your amp will work fine.

Should not be a cut in the metal of the rear hatch. There is a removable panel on the inside of the hatch door, in the lower half. This panel can be replaced with a thicker sheet of plywood / particle board to allow mounting the speakers.

A wire touching the metal body is very much possible
