Alright I'm on the finishing touches of my install, and I hit a brick wall! I've been trying to figure it out on google, but I'm stumped and tired of having the back of my car torn to pieces! lol So if anyone could help me, It would be GREATLY appreciated!
The Problem: My LOC is reducing the sound horribly to my subs. If i have both of the RCA's plugged in the system is very quiet, but it I un-plug one then the system is 100 times louder which doesn't make sense to me! I have the a PAC 2 channel LOC, and I've checked 10 times to make sure the wires were ran right. I just don't know what to do! If anyone has any info to why it would be doing this, and how to fix it I would greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
Are both gains on the LOC adjustable? IT should have two screws to adjust the gains on the LOC. Other then that you might have a connection that needs to be redone.

Well I hit another brick wall... I got it fixed then about 30 minutes later it started cutting out.... So now I don't know what the hell it is! Hahaha at least I didn't start putting my car back together yet I guess! :/

The sound started cutting out randomly, and now it won't play any sound at all... I know its not because of the second battery because the amp still has power and the battery is putting out current, the amp is fine and still is on with the green light and not in protection mode, I also went to Walmart and bought a second LOC and hooked it up and it wasn't putting out any sound either. I took a pair of RCA to AUX cables and plugged them into the LOC's and figured out that none of the LOC's are working... I know i have them hooked up right, and I know that the wire taps into the rear speak wire's are right because I've checked them and they work. So idk what I need to do now! :/ Guess I'm just gonna have to wait till I buy a head unit... If anyone knows what I can do to try to fix this problem all help is appreciated! If you'd like I can draw a diagram of how I have it set up, and y'all can tell me if I have any noticeable problems.
Have you tried hooking an ipod or something to the RCAs with a headphone jack to RCA wire? That way you are eliminating everything but the power and that will help narrow it down.

Lol the only reason I went and bought one from walmart was because I was trying to do the process of elimination to see if the other LOC was garbage... I already took that one back after I figured out it wasn't just the LOC.

Yeah I can try that when I get home. I can just plug an RCA Out & AUX In cord into the amp and see what It does.... If that doesn't fix it, then what could it be? Like If I plug in the RCA's into the AMP and don't get any signal then what do you think that could be?
