can anyone with JL 500/1 amp experience please tell me if my set up is wrong anywhere? my subs keep turning on and off whenever i hit a bump. if its on it would shut off until i hit another bump to trigger it to turn back on...or i could just hit the sub box and it would do the same thing....ive checked the wires many time and i dont think it is that... please look at the pics below and advise...

If all is ok outside, it may have nothing to do with the connection and could be a fault with the internals of the amp itself. The relay switch inside may be malfunctioning or some other connections. Do you have another amp to try?
