no sound from subs

im running 0 gauge wire so that not a problem. the power wire looks like a water hose lol. im pretty experienced with car audio thats y i dont understand y there is no sound at all coming from them. i tested them on a drill battery and they moved just like they should. i even tried them in a buddys car and no sound in his car either. it doesnt make any sense to me at all. like i said they sounded great in my tahoe but i cant get them to work now for nothing.

Did you ever find a solution for this? I am having the same problem as far as I can tell. I just installed a new set of Kicker L7 10" 2-ohm (wired like https://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/woofer_configurations.asp~Q~2~I~22) to a Kicker zx1000.1 amp in my 99 F150 and I have power to the amp and the remote lead but nothing on the other side of the amp to go out to the speakers. I tried with a multi-meter (dc 2000 setting) and I was getting readings at the battery, Fuse 1, Fuse 2, and amp connections but not at speaker connections or RCS tips (pos to prong and neg to shield)

If you got a solution to your problem maybe it might work in my case if not maybe someone else knows what it could be.

Thanks in advance for any help anyone can provide.

Never Mind, I got it figured out. Apparently It worked all along I just didn't know how to set the settings and because of that the settings were so low nothing was being produced.
