I can't get the LED signal light on back to turn on. I put the toggle switch from "auto" to "on". Any thoughts? I can't get the subwoofer to turn on. It's about 7 years old.

You might have blown a fuse. Also check to make sure that the plug is making good contact. Hopefully, you didn't smoke the voice-coil. Have you smelled a burning smell? If you smoked the v/c or popped a tinsel lead, then you will need a new driver. But, it sounds more like a fuse to me. Maybe try a different outlet.

Forgot to mention that sometimes fuses are internal meaning you will have to remove the driver in most cases and inspect said amp. Otherwise, you may just have to remove the amp. It is kind of trial and error. Maybe give Mirage/Energy albeit the Klipsch Corporation a call and see if they can offer you some tips. I almost bet it is just a fuse. But, the amp could be fried too. Hope that is not the case. Best wishes!


Cheers,
