- Trouble shooting and repair of a Taramps HD3000 car stereo amplifier. Hey I enjoy repairing electronics as a hobby, and decided to video some of them to hopefully help other people repair things too. Sorry the end screen goes on for a long time, still perfecting my video editing.

I really enjoyed the video. I wish I could go back to school. So I could be a tech. I know to go so far. And if I don't have what I'm working on fixed. I know to stop. Before I take a chance and matters even more worst off than what they was. I have the very same Craftmans multi meter as you. I've got 2 oscilloscopes, a signal generator, other nice tools to work with. I even have about the same solder extractor. I'm picky about my soldering irons and tips. My favorite of all is upgrading electronics. With better components. So they preform better in every aspect.
You would really like Perry's site, bcae1.com
I just got one of these to work on. I have a feeling my problem is in the power supply. I was just asking myself could these things be sensitive to input power? You just answered my question.
Hey would you beable to tell me what mosfets are in the power supply section please bud
Where are the fuses on this amp? My friend said his doesn’t work. It doesn’t work because he thought he was a good idea to mess with my tunings because he still bought this amp for a preloaded dual sdr after I told him to go for a 1200w amp. Lets just say he told me he turned every knob fully to the right and shredded the voice coils on the sdr’s and blew the amp. I’m assuming he blew his fuses, I’m not able to look at it for him at the moment and I ain’t seeing any fuses in this amp from the pictures and videos I’m seeing online.
I have a HD3000 on my bench now. My problem is a bit more complex, mine goes thru selftest, and then goes into protect. It seems to be related to the amplifier sections. Did you ever monitor the PIC inputs to determine what voltages were normal. I removed the output Mosfets and IR2092 driver ICS , and still goes into protect after selftest .
I did not, sorry.
Mine does the same thing I brought it off Facebook 2 weeks ago and didn’t think to test it there, when I supply power to it the fans speed up and it goes though that test then fans shut off and it goes into protect
Wow, way fewer power supply and output mosfets than my earthquake phd5000w, and mine is only rated for 3000w rms.... What is the actual rms output of that taramps??
sir good day and thanks for the video , i have trouble for on taramps hd3000 to square wave signal generated input of mosfet driver, at the amplifier section i suspect that the comparator chip with dual output (c16 at the schematic) is damage due to emitting lot of heat , may main problem is i don't know if what is the part number. Sir do you know the part number of this chip or any replacement? thanks
I don't have the schematic (you could send it to me though, that would be great). Check video 4 in this series to see what I found wrong. If that don't help, look in the comments of that video for the contact info for the two authorized repair shops for Taramps. They can surely help.
My taramps 1800.1 is stuck in protection mode i opened it up n theres a lil piece of the board it says SHUT its burned can any1 tell me wat that is n is there a way i can fix it
How much to fix one ? I can ship it ASAP
I put my taramp in 2 different cars and it still won’t come outta protect what do I need to do?
Check the comments on Video 4 of this series for the contact info for the authorized repair shops for Taramps. They can surely help.
can someone help me with this my light (PROT) comes on and stay on whats wrong?
Lots of different faults can make the protect light come on. A tech needs to do a check on it to see if it is something easy to fix or more difficult. Have you googled to see if there is a tech in your area?
I'm new 2 this stuff but i need the colors and the order there in on the 2 blue cylinder things by speaker plug ins on a hd3000 1ohm version. Speaker wires crossed n burnt I believe there called resistors? Please help me! Lol
There by the 3 blue box looking pieces by the fan n mono speaker inputs
I don't have the amp anymore, and I do not have the schematics for it, sorry.
What's the fan size inside the taramp hd3k mines started making noise
Take the fan out, lift the sticker on the back center of the fan, exposing the bearing. Add a drop of oil.
@@Crazylogix007 thank you for the advice I will do that
Why my md5000.1 turns on remote when I disconnect ground wire
Not 100% sure because I do not have the schematics for that amp, but it kind of sounds like its something to do with power trying to find a ground and its going through part of the turn on circuit via your remote wire. You should never be disconnecting the ground wire without first removing the main power wire fuse (you should have a fuse on your power wire or you risk dead amps, burnt up wires or at worse a electrical fire which burns up your car). Once main power is disconnected you can remove the ground, this prevents all kinds of electrical problems and accidents.

Because you have the rca cables still connected?
do you have schematics of this amplifier?
Long after i fixed this amp, I found them doing a google search.
@@Crazylogix007 i found the ir2010 version but not the irs2092s driver chip, I'm having trouble with the output section , may i know where did you find the schema irs2092s version, or is it possible i can get it from you?
Grate job. Do u have the schematic for this HD 3000?
I do not. Sorry.
Great video, wish you would've explained on a more beginners level, i dont know which leg is gate and which is drain, although I know how to look it up but on this amp I would've liked to see it explained so i wouldn't have to do so much research while watching and also you didn't explain what you out your multimeter on. Great video though
Most the time you use continuity setting on the multimeter, like here checking for shorts. This is a older video, I get better as I go, and still keep learning myself.
@@Crazylogix007 thanks man, I just got a 2ohm version of this amp that has a burnt mosfet and a 1 ohm version that visually nothing wrong, just stuck in protect, i checked the power supply with a multi meter in continuity and the power supply seemed fine but one mosfet on the audio side read much different than the rest, what you think?
If you wouldn't care to help id appreciate any words of wisdom, you could message me on instagram? I'd appreciate it big time! I also have a smart 3 I tried to fix with no luck and dont have the money or know who to send them to, to get fixed
@@DYLANTRIES So far that is the only Taramps I have worked on. Contact G. S. Amp repair in Arizona, They are one of two authorized Taramps repair places that I know of. George has good prices and will take care of ya.
@@Crazylogix007 ok thanks alot!
Some one knows the part number of IC9. It is the smallest IC near of the potentiometers???
I returned the amp to its owner, so I cannot check that chip, sorry.
Got a little more info, I was told that IC9 is a voltage regulator, but was not given a part number. Hope that helps narrow it down.
I need my hd3000.1 fixed it plays but then goes into protect mode
Shane Ekstrom (My77stang@gmail.com) or G.S. Amp repair, LLC on facebook are both authorized Taramps repair. Check them out.
@@Crazylogix007 hey I need my taramps hd 3000 fixed how much u charge me?
Can someone tell me why do eBay has Taramps coming from China for $18US
It's a scam, it will get reported and taken down normally within a day.
@@Crazylogix007 thank you,,,, they should really stop that
3 k out of the little board or those it put out reall 3 k rms
Yep, 3k, big d wiz tested it. But they won't do it very long, overheat or die. They were designed for music that only needed big power every once in a while. Not the big Bass heavy stuff most listen to here in the states and Europe
So wt u think about the new crome md series the 8k 1 ohm i am on the fance about it
@@10krms8 To me the Brazilian designs are still "new" and have not been around long enough to have a informed opinion on. I enjoy the old school amps the most, but I'm old LOL.
How can so little components handle 300+amps and pump out 3KW continuous? seems to defy laws of physics, the perfect sleeper amp.
These first Brazilian amps do put out rated power, but they do not handle it continuous, Brazilian music is much different than the bass heavy songs in the US. Taramps is now producing big amps that handle the continuous loads. This amp would be great for mids and highs though.
what if you ran the amps at double the rated impedance? should be able to handle it continuos at less power (1.5KW)@@Crazylogix007
Yes that would help, Taramps now has amps in the US that are more suited to our bass heavy music, so you could always get one of those.
Crazylogix007 I just ordered a taramp hd 3000. I listen to lots of bass heavy music, so you think I’m going to regret this purchase?!? Do you think this amp will have trouble keeping up the power? I got the 1 ohm version and it’s a 3000k amp but it can be set up to a 4ohm load to put out around 1400k and that’s how I plan to set it up at 4 ohm load. What you think? Will it suck at pushing out the power for bass heavy subwoofers??
@@Crazylogix007 I've got one that just went into protect mode "redlight" and i cant seen to find the problem
Don't you just hate the tough dogs? You learn from them but so time consuming.
Loved this repair, stay tuned, to see what was really wrong.
@@Crazylogix007 Waiting to see it, keep it up. Tell me what camera do you use?
This video was shot with my phone, a Goggle Pixel. I now use Logitech web cams, a C920 (overhead) and a C615 (scope).
