  If your MB QUART Car Amplifier goes into diagnostic mode, try these steps: 1. Disconnect all RCA and speaker leads, leaving the +12 volt, power ground, and remote leads connected. 2. Turn the amplifier back on. If the diagnostic LED lights up, it indicates an internal fault. 3. Plug the RCA cables back in and reset the amplifier to check for input faults. 4. Connect the speakers one at a time to identify any faulty speakers or wiring.
