so i just bought an amp off ebay and it was deff. used. but looks like its in good condition. well i get it all hooked up and it deff doesnt work... so i try one of my buddies amps and it works so i know its not the wiring. so i took the pioneer apart and tried to see if i could find anything burnt up or poped, and i cant find anything... no fuses blown or anything. anyone have any clue what might be wrong with it?

 

does it have the mossfets in it? (I remember when that was a big issue on Ebay)

 

what are mossfets?

 

the basic parts that make it work. There where all the power comes from. they look like big black push in fuses almost.

how bout a picture?

 

its the pioneer gm7300m. its an 800 watt amp. what specifically do u want a pic of?

 

pics or ban

 

u just want pics of the amp or a certain part?

heres a pic of the amp

 

wholy big picture...I was thinking pics of the inside...

 

ohhhhh... dang. well i put it back together... but when i had it apart i didnt see anything that looked like it was missing or any spots that looked like there should be something there.

 

could just be bad...

 

yeah thats what im thinkin. but wouldnt you thing there would hafta be something to make it go bad? like a broken connection or something?

 

most likely it's toasted, did you sniff it?

and you may not be able to see something that would cause it not to work. did you bench test it too?

 

You can take it to a shop and have them bench test it for cheap. They may be able to repair it if it's broken.

 

ya your not going to repair that buy urself. not only do you have no idea wtf is going on internally pioneer amps are a bitch to repair with all the equiptment you dont have. So if your 100% sure its the amp hit up the ebay seller again and see what you can do. otherwise look for a competent repair shop or possibly have it bench tested

 

alright. yeah i messaged the ebay seller. so well see what he has to say. but i might have to see if i can find a place who can check it out. if not ill just buy my buddies 800w kenwood amp. lol!
