so i just wired and installed my jl 10w7 with a 500/1 jl amp. started out perfect then out of no where when i was driving the sub would be hitting without music playing... i tried turning the sub off and same problem, tried turning the audio off, same problem. im stuck lol

edit: the LOC i used has a "remote" slot built in so i put the remote to that

 

Sounds like the"ANC" auto noise cancellation issue. It would help to know what year & type. The type-s have ANC, not sure about the regular models.

 

yes i have an 08 type-s

 

and actually i know what you mean, tomorrow ill turn the anc off and try it, cant do it now neighbors will hate me since it is pretty loud

 

so i still have the same problem, i am completely lost. i have no idea what to do. im thinking it maybe be a problem with the amp? someone help me

 

one must be more specific when you are saying that your subs are hitting...hum...pop...flapping...what LOC are you running and where did you pull the signal from for the LOC?

Did you disconnect BOTH the front & rear ANC mics. The ANC is an automatic feature it cannot be turned on and off. Even if the audio system is powered off, the ANC is generating negative sound waves to "quiet the cabin". If you've disconnected both mics then the issue is probably in your LOC / AMP wiring.

 

i feel like such an idiot, i just disconnected the rear and it went away, i dont know where the front is, i searched for it but i couldnt find it. thank you

 

front is under the sunroof control switch...

 

yes but how do i remove that? i got the lens off but there are no visible screws

 

its not affected by the front mic....to my knowledge the 2 mics monitor diff aspects of the system and since the subs in the rear... the rear has to be disconnected. when u and if u add an loc for an amp for the speakers then its time to disconnect the front mic.

 

i removed the rear anc and still the same problem just not as bad... and like i said i do have an LOC. i just need to know how to get to the front plug, i took the lens off and couldnt figure it out since there are no screws

 

I had to figure this one out on my own back in the day. Shoulda heard the noise coming from an IDMAX 12 and 1050 watt ARC amp!! I was like WWWTTTFFFFFFF is that noise!!!

 

lmao i can imagine!

 

Now try the front mic. There is an excellent write up on this (finding it may be difficult). Search for ANC. (I'd try to find more, but my left arm in a full cast so I'm not to proficient). In total the rear took 15 - 20 minutes the front about 30.



good luck
