Any BassLink owers out there that have had this problem? If so what did you do? (I am thinking the unit is history but thought I'd ask)

I noticed when I moved my Infinity BassLink subwoofer from my other car to the Crossfire that it didn't come on right away - took maybe a second or three. I didn't think anything of it because it had behaved that way in the other car. But a few days ago that changed a lot. It started taking 15 minutes to cut in. Then after a couple days, it would only come on in the evening when I left work and the car was really hot inside. Otherwise it remains silent. (All the right wires and switches are set properly so it's not that)

I swapped it back to the other car and put the BassLink that was in that car into the Crossfire. The problem stayed with the BassLink, and the one I put in the Crossfire comes on right away.

I'm thinking there's a thermal short somewhere. The BassLink as it's own amp inside so I am wondering if there's the problem.

Anyone every have a problem like this with a BassLink?

 

Do you have it wired up to turn on when sensing a audio signal? I had an amp once hook-up this way that started acting like yours. I fixed the problem by running a 12 volt power on sensing wire. Good luck and hope this helps.

 

As I said, I swapped a good one in and it works. The "bad" one in the other car that the "good" one came from still doesn't work.

Looking for anyone who might have ventured inside the BassLink enclosure to fix a symptom like this.
