Need Help With Alpine Setup

the vehicle: 2000 Expedition

The system: (1) ALpine type x 12 " Dvc sub and (1) Alpine mrd-m1001 amp

The problem: No sound from the sub.

Here's how it's wired: From the battery i connected a Monster cable 4AWG power supply and ran it to a 100A anl fuse mounted to firewall. From there i ran he wire inside down the passenger side and connected it to a 1 farad Rocford power cap. The ground from the cap is mounted to the vehicle chassis where all paint and grease has been removed. From the power on cap it is hooked to power on amp and ground from cap is hooked to ground on amp. From the head unit (Alpine cda-7893) Monster cable micro's were connected the the sub preouts and ran down the driver side where it was connected to the amp input (ch-1L ch-2R) The input level on the amp is set at the default 0.1V-2.0V and output disable was turned on. All other adjustment modes were left as is. From the pos. and neg. speaker wire iis connecte to box blah blah blah. Sub is wired at 2 Ohms and jumpers are on far left and far right of sub. None of the (4) 20A fuses on the amp are blown and neither is the 100 amp anl fuse. The display on the amp is as follows: 11.9V, 84F, 24C, ---A

the amp is getting power and turns on with the vehicle. I just cant figure out what the deal is. Could my cap be no good? Oh yea and all settings are set up correctly throuh HU (Sub ON)

Any input would be great guys. Im really eager to get this thing up and running. 

i just caught that too oonik. i got it up and running now. Sounds awesome. Sorry for being such a noob ppl.  this was my first install. 

hornshockey: So you're saying i should ground the amp to the chassis as well as ground my cap to the chassis?

i honestly like it . im coming from two alpine type s subs (the older ones) and a rockford 360a2 amp. this one sub destroys that setup and all my friends' setup. i know their are other better subs out there but ive always had a liking towards alpine. i dunno i cant explain it. Besides i got both the sub and amp for 600. thats the cheapest ive seen one W7. im not looking to blow the hinges off the vehicle 3 cars behind me anytime soon (although that would be pretty sweet). but when i do ill make sure i come here so i know wich one will do eactly that. But, Im happy and  that's all that really matters. oh yea i have a sealed box. the bass sounds crisp and very precise.... IMO. lot better than my last setup....A LOT.
