faulty Amp Wiring????

Ok, lately my amps have really been pissing me off. Where I live you cant go more than two blocks without hitting a dip or pot hole in the streets, and lately, if I'm going over 10 mph over one of these both of my amps just turn off. Not just the one for my subs, but also the one for my components.

So after they go off, I turn off my HU and wait a couple of seconds then turn it back on, and whala, both the amps turn on again. WTF

I know its not the amps because both of them should not turn off at the same time if they're fvcked up, right?

Is there something wrong with my wiring, or something else?

This s#its really annoying when your trying to bump and the amps keep turning off.

Anybody have any clues?

I would check all your wiring. You might just have a loose connection with either your ground or your remote or something. Before you turn the HU off and then back on again, I would test your connections with a digital multimeter.

Try checking the fuses in the distribution block they could be loose.

my bet is that the bumps in the road plus the vibration of the subs themselves just got to be too much for the wiring...they just wiggled themselves out
