Schwinn Meridian Adult 26-Inch 3-Wheel Bike Small chain came off - after only 2 rides.


Problem with Schwinn Meridian Adult 26-Inch 3-Wheel Bike
Small chain came off - after only 2 rides. Too
Small chain came off - after only 2 rides. Too loose. I turned the bike over and read the instructions...can't seem to pull the back frame tighter to tighten the chain. (after loosening he bolts, of course) Is there anyway to remove a segment of the chain? Walmart put it together for me. 

There is the way to remove the link of chain, but for that you will need a special chain tool. You can buy it on ebay, or, go back to Walmart and ask for proper sizing.


Recheck every link on the chain, some manufactures have installed a clip on the side of one of the link which you can remove, this is so yo can take out any links you don't need , when you get your desired length you put the clip back on and make sure to snap it in place.

Iright wheel making rubbing crunching sound.

I weigh 220 lbs. When I shift my weigh to the left the noise quits.

Either bad bearings in the wheel or the bearings need to be re-greased  its an easy fix for a do-it yourself  or take it to your local bike shop , you can get the grease at any auto store(cheaper).

They go into protect for several reasons. Unless you are a trained technician you should not try to repair it yourself. It may have a blown channel. Disconnect the speakers and try turning it on again. If it still goes into protect you have a serious problem. If it does not go into protect, you may just have a bad speaker, or have the impedance too low for that amp. The smartest thing to do would be to take it to a repair center and have them test it to find out if the problem is in the amp or in the wiring/speakers.

I had a few sony amps, and they don't do well as far as i am concerned. I have experienced them doing the same thing for no apparent reason. One minute they are working fine and the next, they are done. What is happening is that the mosfets are burning out inside the amp which causes them to go into protect mode. Make sure you go by the specs on that specific amp. Usually most amps don't go under 2 ohms stereo and 4 ohms mono. A lot of people start to experiment and notice if they hook-up a certain way, they produce a lot more bass. Sometimes that few minutes of great bass burns out a mosfet or two which kills the amp.

It sounds like you have a bad ground make sure its on the froame or body and make sure any rust or paint is sanded or scraped off

Sony Xplod - cd reset

I recently had my car battery changed and the CD player hasn't worked since - the display says to reset and then turns the system off. I've tried hitting the reset button but nothing happens.

POWER ISSUUE :Sony Xplod XM-554ZR Car Audio Amplifier

Problem with Sony Xplod XM-554ZR Car Audio Amplifier

Quick question about the power

I have the 12volt live wire connected to the car battery, and a remote wire connected to the aux power supply..... The amp works and everything is fine. My question is, when the car is off, the power light (green) is still on. IS IT SUPPOSED TO BE???...the reason why I ask is because, me being a moron, spliced the live 12v wire from the battery to both terminals (REM & 12v), of course the amp worked fine, but overnight it completely drained the battery ( had to get a new battery), I don't want the same thing to happen again.


The remote turn on terminal on the amp needs to be connected to a switched power source. Typically, it's the remote turn-on/power antenna wire on the head unit. If your head unit doesn't have such a control wire, connect the remote turn-on terminal to a wire that's controlled by the ignition switch. 

It's VERY important to fuse all of the wires properly. If you're unsure of the proper fuse for a given wire size, read pages 14 and 16 of the Basic Car Audio Electronics site. 


OR
No you will need your separate remote wire connected to either the back on you deck or to a source that completely cuts off with the car. Your battery is always powered you amp needs a cut off source to tell it to turn off when the car is off.
