If you enter the wrong code the display will flash the message BAD CODE and return you to the UNLOCK menu.

Press the  key to enter your lock code again. Enter your code again making sure to place the correct character in the correct position in the display. Blank spaces count as part of the code so be sure you are entering your code correctly.

If you have tried entering your code several times with no success (several is defined as more than 3...less than 10) then you probably have forgotten your lock code.

You will need to call KICKER directly at (405) 624-8583 and speak to a tech to handle this situation. You will need to have your amplifier’s serial number AND your receipt by the phone as the guys and gals answering the phone will need this information from you to be of assistance.

Take the time right now to fill out the first page in this manual and staple your receipt to it. That way if you ever need service (like forgetting your lock code) you will have all the information you need right here with the manual.

Memory Presets

There are four global memory presets built into the WXRC, each with its own indicator in the ISIS display and a dedicated memory key to activate it.

TroubleShooting

If your WXRC does not appear to be working, check obvious things first such as blown fuses, poor or incorrect wiring connections, cables and connectors not fully seated, etc.

There is a Green LED located on one end of the WXRC Interface Box. This LED indicates the WXRC is receiving power and is turned on.

Green LED off:

Verify the external fuse to the Interface Box is good. Verify the power plug is fully seated in the Interface Box. Verify the wiring is correct at the power plug.

With a Volt Ohm Meter’s (VOM) negative probe attached to chassis ground check: +12 volt power terminal (should read +12V to +16V)

Remote turn-on terminal (should read +12V to +16V) Ground terminal (should read 0V)

Green LED on, no display on WXRC Control Head:

Verify the cable from the Control Head is plugged securely into the Interface Box.

If using an extension cable between the Interface Box and the Control Head, Verify the connectors are plugged in securely on both ends.

If using an extension cable between the Interface Box and the Control Head, Verify the cable is a 6 conductor PS2 type cable.

If using an extension cable between the Interface Box and the Control Head, the cable or

08WXRC, WXRC specifications

The Kicker WXRC and 08WXRC series represent a blend of innovative audio engineering and rugged design, tailored specifically for passionate car audio enthusiasts. These subwoofers are designed to deliver deep, resonant bass that can transform any vehicle into a mobile sound stage.

One of the main features of the Kicker WXRC subwoofers is their custom, high-output woofer cone. Constructed with a durable injection-molded polypropylene, the cone not only ensures longevity but also enhances the clarity and punch of the sound produced. This design minimizes distortion and allows for a more powerful low-frequency output, providing listeners with the immersive experience they crave.

The technology behind the Kicker WXRC includes a high-temperature voice coil, which allows the subwoofers to handle increased power levels without overheating. This is crucial for users who enjoy playing their audio at loud levels, as it ensures reliability and performance throughout extended listening sessions. The dual voice coil configuration offers flexible wiring options, allowing the subwoofers to be easily integrated into various audio setups.

Another notable characteristic of the Kicker WXRC series is its robust enclosure design. The subwoofers are engineered to work optimally in a variety of enclosure types, including sealed or ported configurations, making them versatile for different sound preferences. The enclosures are often constructed with high-grade MDF for added durability and reduced resonance, ensuring that the sound remains clean and powerful.

The Kicker WXRC and 08WXRC subwoofers are also equipped with advanced cooling technologies. Their unique venting system allows air to flow freely over the voice coil, reducing the risk of thermal build-up during intense play. This means that users can enjoy high volumes without compromising the quality of their audio.

In terms of installation, the Kicker WXRC subwoofers come with a variety of mounting options, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of vehicles. Their sleek design and customizable features make them an attractive choice for anyone looking to upgrade their sound system.

Overall, the Kicker WXRC and 08WXRC subwoofers are designed to deliver exceptional bass performance in a reliable, robust package. With their impressive features, advanced technologies, and commitment to sound quality, these subwoofers stand out as a top choice for car audio enthusiasts seeking to elevate their listening experience.
