try a inline noise filter from walmart its A SCHOCIE BRAND PLUG IT INTO UR AMP IN THE RCA PORTS AND PLUG UR RCAS IN THE FILTER. had same problum and that fixed it

and inline filter is just a bandaid for a bullet wound. Meaning its just going to mask a much larger problem. My guess is that you have cheap RCAs. Try a new set of RCAs and it should fix your problem.

Thats What i heard about inline filters. I also thought it might be the RCA's But even when i unplug The Speaker wire from From the amp To the actuall subs. Its Stops. So again any ideas.

also make sure your rcas are not near the power wire. i found out that's why i was getting the popping after that i ditched the filter. but the best thing is to go to the local car audio shop and pay um $25 to trouble shoot it!

Yea, Or the RCA's. I heard it could be a bad ground so i did a completly different one.. Just confusing seeing as it worked a month or 2 ago.. could putting the subs in a differnet spot in the truck change anything? Again Thanks for all your help. By the way.

NEW INFO!!!!!!!!
Okay... So I re undid everything all over again!!!!
Now Its still making the rapid popping noise once both rca's are in But when I leave just the "R"(Right) or the red Port in the AMP I can hear bass from the music quite alright... but as soon as i plug in the "L"(left) or the white port in the AMP it goes rapid popping.. I switched around the RCA's (thought it was a bad cord) but still the same thing happens so its not the cord.
this time any ideas any similar problems?

either subs are blown or rcs, or the ports on the amp are bad, or the amp is bad itself, or could be a wire
like a previous guy said just take your truck to a shop, have em test it.

its either a bad output from your head unit, or a bad input on your amp.
