I just installed MRV F-407 , technically it runs , but thera are three leds ; Power , music and Protection. The LED Protection is blinking :(. I went to manual and found out that , they call this " rca gorund floated " ? Any one got clue what they mean ? I did test amp at home , pluged to 12v power supply and it was all good, once installed in my car , got blink.

it sounds like maybe one of your rca cables isn't pushed on all the way?? just a guess. Because the metal ring around the pole shaped piece on the rca in your ground.

Sounds like they could be right. Although, do you think it is possible that you might have smashed or pierced on of your RCA's during the install?
