Icon2 subs sounding on and off..

I think my RCA cables are done for. Or the unit itself has gone out. Everything works I have power at the sub and wires to the speakers. I think the crappy street wires I bought are shot or the Jensen in-dash has given up. My screen quit working about 2 years after I bought it. No more warranty and looking for another in-dash as we speak.

Try a different set of rca cables.. Ive tested them by using ones you would use for your TV.

Well I tried the RCA's I had and still no boom. So either the amp inputs or the head unit outputs are done for..

Check the power wire? Mine was keep coming loose at the fuse and everytime I'd hit a bump they'd go out.

You could always get a new head unit then and see if it fixes the problem since it sounds like you'll be needing one soon.
