    This unit is the factory JBL amped Nav package. However when turning the volume up about 45 the whole unit just stops giving a signal. I've done a complete rewire and replacement of all speakers with JL audio amp and Memphis PR speakers. However this problem has been occurring before the upgrade and the head unit was changed twice but the problem persists. It only resets itself when the car is fully turned off and turned back on again. Any info would be great. 0920192353.jpeg 0920191354.jpeg

    Amp must be going into protection mode.

    That’s what I think too. Something doesn’t seem right though, 45 is REALLY BLEEPING LOUD! Especially if you have an upgraded amp
