Solved! Faulty Channel Switch?

[Gazbirt]

I have a Rockford Fosgate R600x5 amp. The two channels for the front speakers both work, and if I hook the rear speakers up to those two channels they play music. When it's all hooked up like it should be the rear two will play sometimes if I mess with the 2/4/5 channel switch. Does anyone have any ideas on what could be wrong with it?

The 2/4/5 channel switch may need cleaning. Spray some contact cleaner in the there, move it back and forth and hope for the best.

If the switch is sealed you may not be able to get contact cleaner inside it. Sometimes just moving the switch 30-40 times will clean it. Do that with the amp off.
