Port side Speakers and Sub not working

[Texan1554]

Was out yesterday and was playing with the amp just trying to tune the bass settings and everything on the Port side cut out.

This is a fairly new to me stock 2002 Super Air Team Editition. Head unit, and all speakers on the starboard side are working just fine. Checked the fade and other settings through the head unit and everything is set correctly.

Any ideas on things to check before I have to take it in?

my 03 team had something similiar happening on one of the port side speakers, and ended up being a pot on the kicker amp. but if all port side speakers, not sure

just try turning the knobs on the amp for the port sides, see if you get any responses ...

Certainly reverse the RCAs at the source and at the amplifier input one step at a time. Then reverse the speaker outputs from the amplifier. One of these steps will isolate the problem as being the amplifier or external to the amplifier, whether upstream or downstream in the signal path. Always leave breadcrumbs by labeling everything in advance of changes. Next, try spraying the amplifier input gain pots with tuner wash. Not knowing which amplifier you have, it would be unusual to find a switch mode or configuration selection that would be different for left and right, in the event it was accidently bumped. And, when an amplifier goes into protection it wouldn't be on one side only.

Thanks David, I'll give it a shot.
