only one of two subwoofers working

i have my sound system specs in the signature... here's the problem, i've only got one subwoofer thats working right now and i've got the 4 channel amp bridged at 2 channels. at first i thought there was a problem with the RCA wire, so i changed the "bad" one. but i then discovered that if i simply switch the channels to one subwoofer input on the amp it will work on either one, which means there isn't a problem with the amp. both subwoofers actually do work once i start the car up but it kinda of seems like once the car gets hot is when the "bad" subwoofer turns off. its also not a one of the subwoofers they both work fine. i'm thinking this is yet another jensen head unit f-up. i've already had them replace one. any thoughts on where the problem could be? it may take a while before i can afford a new head unit (but as long as at least one of the woofers is hitting i do alright )

I would say check the headunit. Or just put the amp in a friends car or something and see how it works then, just use process of elimination. I know i can be time consuming but its usually worth it. Thats all I can think of. Good luck bud.

im confident its the head unit- never ever ever ever buy Jensen, not matter how cheap you may think it is cuz eventually it will break and you'll end up having to buy a new one.
