49WXA10004

Diagnostic Tool: The WXA1000.4 amplifier includes a WXAVM Diagnostic Tool that can be mounted under a dash or console, and provide you with real-time status information on the amplifier. The WXAVM Diagnostic Tool includes a 19.5' connection cable terminated in RJ-45 connectors. A 3-character readout and five LED indicators on the display provide the following information:

• LED Readout: displays the real-time voltage of the amplifier; also lets you see the highest and lowest voltages reached
• Power LED: On/Off status
• Power Supply LED: off when the amp is operating normally; Red if the power supply is in protection mode
• Temperature LED: lights Green if the internal temperature is < 149°; Orange if the temperature is between 149° and 185°; Red if the amp is in thermal protection mode
• Amp LED (Class-D Protection): off when the amp is operating normally; Red if the Class-D protection mode is activated
• Voltage LED: off when the amp is operating normally; Red with Power LED On, voltage supply is 6.5-10.5 volts; Red with Power LED Off, voltage supply is < 6.5 VDC or > 10.5 VDC

Wire Connections: The WXA1000.4 has set screw terminals for power, ground, turn-on (REM), and speaker outputs. The power and ground terminals can accept wire up to 1/0-gauge wire (recommended). Two remote turn-on terminals can accept up to 8-gauge wire; the second remote terminal can be used to pass the trigger signal out to additional amplifiers. Four sets of speaker outputs, split between Amp1 and Amp2, can accept wire up to 8-gauge wire. All wire terminal set screws are loosened/tightened with one of the supplied 3mm or 5mm Allen keys.

Notes:

• Installation of the Kicker WXA1000.4 Warhorse amplifier will require 1/0-gauge power and ground wires and an in-line 200A fuse for installation.
• A high-output alternator (180-amp or higher at idle) and a second battery (80+ Ah and 800+ CCA) are recommended for installing the WXA1000.4.

External Fuse: The amplifier does not include any built-in fuses; an external 200A fuse should be placed on the power wire within 18" of the battery.

Input Signal: The WXA1000.4 4-channel amplifier features Kicker's FIT+ (Fail-safe Integration Technology) differential RCA inputs that can accept line-level and speaker-level inputs from most factory or aftermarket headunits. When using speaker-level input signals, an optional speaker wire to RCA adapter is recommended (sold separately - see Accessories). The WXA1000.4 can accept input signals ranging from 125mV up to 40V.

Outputs: Two RCA outputs are provided for passing the input signals out to additional amplifiers.
