If your Phoenix Gold iron is not heating up and all the blue lights are flashing, it indicates a potential issue with the iron. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try: 1. Check the power supply: Ensure that the iron is properly connected to a functioning power outlet. Make sure the power cord is securely plugged in and that there are no loose connections. 2. Allow the iron to cool down: If you have been using the iron continuously for an extended period, it may have reached its temperature limit and shut off for safety reasons. Let the iron cool down for a few minutes and then try turning it on again. 3. Clean the iron's soleplate: Over time, the soleplate can accumulate dirt, residue, or fabric fibers, which can affect the iron's heating performance. Make sure the iron is unplugged and cooled down before cleaning the soleplate. Use a damp cloth or sponge to gently wipe the soleplate and remove any debris. Avoid using abrasive materials that could scratch the surface. 4. Check the water tank: If your iron has a steam function, ensure that there is sufficient water in the tank. If the water level is low, refill the tank according to the manufacturer's instructions. A low water level can prevent the iron from heating properly. 5. Perform a reset: Some irons have a reset button or a combination of buttons that can be pressed to reset the device. Consult the user manual for your specific model to find out if it has a reset function and how to perform it. 6. Contact customer support: If the above steps do not resolve the issue, it is recommended to contact the manufacturer's customer support for further assistance. They can provide specific troubleshooting steps or advise on repairs or warranty options if necessary. Always refer to the user manual provided with your Phoenix Gold iron for model-specific instructions and safety guidelines.

yes, but you would not get the same performance as you would if you gave them the suggested power. I have found that it is always better to use a more powerful amp than your subs are rated for (as long as it is clean, high quality, low distortion power). I have had the best luck with name brand amps (kicker,rockford fosgate,phoenix gold,etc...). I hope this will be helpful to you.

remove speaker wire a amp, terminals does OVL come on now.??? test 1 done report. a CAR amp. no model told at all. MX or RX xxxxxx numbers. etc??? nobody can guess what is in your hands https://phoenixgold.com/collections/amplifiers

I'm not familiar with that amp, but normally the power and ground terminals are larger than the rest. Are B- and B+ a lot bigger than the other terminals? It seems to me that power should be B+, Ground should be B- (although usually they are labled something like +12V and -12V or +12V and GND) and the R is probably for the remote wire (small blue wire that runs to head unit)

Request the diagram from Phoenix Gold.

Look up the part numbers on the components themselves. I can assure you that they are readily available from places not named PG. They are made in a factory with a bunch of diffenent Brands. If simply trying to repair the knob you may be able to use another knob from different Manufacturer if it takes the same jack for wire.

LPF is typically Low Pass Frequency, it puts the amp in a state where only low frequency signals will pass thru to the speakers. LPL is for Low Pass Level control, that is used on PG products that have an LPL port. Using a phone style cable and a 50k potentiometer you can control the level of the amp's output.

Probably the power is not received by the heating coil, check fuse near the power cable (inside the flap on the iron bottom), or sometimes there is fuse in the power pulg of the power chord. It is rarely that the lamp is blown

Most mono amps now a days give you multiple terminals. The older amps were a pain trying to stuff all the wires in one set of terminals. If the amp is rated at 2 ohms mono then make sure what ever configuration of speakers your running does not go below 2 ohms using both terminals. For example do not hook a 2 ohm load to each terminal. 2 ohms period between the 2 sets of terminals.

Connect both to head unit and amp. Then bridge sub off of amp.
