DarkHeart Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 As per title, plugged in everything today and all I get is the tuner lights flashing, it was ok a week ago at the last gig, ive tried to google the problem but there are no hits for it.

Chienmortbb Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 On many digital systems there is a reset button or sequence of buttons to reboot/reset the processors. You might find it in you user manual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deloreanbass Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 In the instruction manual, theres a section under miscellaneous that explains why it's happened. It happens if it senses extreme Temps, if you plug a non TC cab with a jack connection, if you use a Speakon to Jack cable or if you disconnect the cab while the head is still switched on. All it suggests is to switch the head off and leave it for a while before powering it back up again. Is the peak light flashing also?

indiegrungesound Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 I you still have a problem with it, I'd strongly urge you to take the BH500 AND-if it's possible-your cabs and cables back to the store that you purchased the amplifier from. Make sure that you have your receipt with as well. When I purchased my BH500, after trying it out for a good 20-30 minutes, it died within 10 minutes of plugging it into my cabinets, after maxing out the gain and the compressor. I was lucky that I could fit my cabs into my car and drive to the shop-in this case PMT-that was only 5-10 minutes away, but they were very helpful. After troubleshooting every situation and set up, they had a replacement amp sent up from another store which is still going strong! Hope that helps!

DarkHeart Posted November 6, 2015 Author Share Posted November 6, 2015 Ive had a chance now to try the head again with my TC cab and it works perfectly, oh well lesson learned in a thankfully painless way, ill be using my own cab for rehearsals from now on. Thanks for the helpful replies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sykilz Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Mine did the flashing light thing when left uncovered in the freezing cold car overnight and getting a lot of condensation damp inside when taken into a hot sweaty pub, had to wait it out for about twenty minutes but eventually came back to life in time for gig. Lesson learned though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigevilman Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Same thing happened with my bh500 - left in gig van for about a month in winter ( had 3 gigs on trot cancelled) and although it still worked, the volume kept dropping :S Worked next gig and every other gig fine. Good heads - got a lot of nice compliments on the sound Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
