Somewhere in these threads, it was pointed out that failures or intermittant operation of these amps were usually caused by a bad $4 relay which is easily replaced. Sorry I can't remember where I saw this.

It's the relay, It's a matter of time before many other owners have this same problem. I was almost ready to buy the relays in bulk and offering a service to replace them (a lot of members don't have the equipment/experience)

Dude. If you get this done PLEEEEAAASEE put me down for one! I have had the amp out (or what I thought, but it sounds like this is a common thing) forever and I would love to give this a shot.

Angry Relay replacement no fix for my problem

I replaced my relay and it did not fix the problem. At this point I'm contemplating two small aftermarket amps in the doors to drive those speakers, or a central 5-channel amp with a sub.

I'd be curious to know the replacement cost of those door amps, which are about as flimsy as it gets. Nobody on here seems to have a source for those, and a few online places claim to have them for over $200. Fifty bucks a door is my absolute maximum, before the aftermarket break-even point takes over...
