Default Rockford Fosgate amp
Just curious, does the amp shut off if you have a bike battery change? My audio doesn't seem as loud after my battery died and was replaced. Mines inside the fairing, trying to keep from pulling it off.

No Sir! Make sure all your speakers are connected and check the power and ground wires on the amp to the battery. Make sure the inline fuse is good. If the issue persists you'll have to pull your fairing to check if the amp is on.

Thanks for the input from everyone. I'll definitely check the fuse and wiring first.
