Why is the siren tone not working on my Galls Amplifier, but the PA does?
- E
  Eric GordonJul 30, 2025
  If your Galls Amplifier siren tone isn't working while the PA system is functional, several factors could be at play. The input voltage may be outside the acceptable range: it needs to be less than 16 volts and greater than 10V when the siren is on. Check if the microphone button is stuck. Make sure the Park Kill jumper option is correctly configured, and test if the siren works when the Park Kill input is disconnected. Finally, examine the speaker and its wiring for shorts or opens.

  If you're experiencing an intermittent siren tone with your Galls Amplifier, consider these potential causes: The vehicle voltage regulator may not be working correctly, or the input voltage may be outside the required range (greater than 10V when the siren is on). Ensure nothing is pressing on the microphone. Verify that the circuit breaker used has at least a 50A rating. Check the speaker and its wiring for water damage or pinched wires.

  If your Galls Amplifier has no power, verify the following: Ensure the yellow wire is connected to a switched +12VDC source. Check the connector for any looseness. Determine if the Siren 15A fuse is blown, which could indicate that the power is hooked up backwards. Confirm that the negative leads are connected to a good ground and that there are no loose connections at the power source.
