Radio Amp Getting Hot..

[TNVIPER]

This may have been discussed before but since I am new ya'll look over me..

The amp in the storage compartment under the middle front seat is hot as he!! (I cannot keep my hand on it for more than a few seconds) and the radio is not even on...is this normal or has this been a common problem?

I've got a couple of songs in my collection that are guaranteed to overheat the speaker coils (and they do!:rock. The amp warms up, but not too hot to touch. Your system probably has a defect. Crank it 'till it blows up and get it replaced under warranty.:thrasher: :thrasher:

I would gut the factory system and get some JL Audio components,10" w3v2 sub and a 300/4 and you will see a huge difference in sound quality and fix the amp prob at the same time

Took it to my dealer...it was so hot you could not touch for more than a second w/o being burned...dealer has ordered replacement under warranty....
