I just hope that My HU backfeed by .5V is not enough to permanently destroy them. Any help please...

Is that point 5 volts or 5 volts you stated? Sorry my eyesight is not perfect!
It looks like .5 volt to me so i will go with that..............
When you measured the voltage, was it on the AC or DC scale?
also, I doubt that that low of voltage would have destroyed any outputs on a HU or any other component. If you want to test them to see if they are OK, hook them up in another car or to a 12 volt power supply and some home audio equipment using the RCA's.........
Test the equipment you think is fried, i bet it is OK from wha you have said.....If not then the only real way to get the equipment working again is to send it in and have it repaired.
Now, why is the amp sending voltage out on the RCA's???????/ Take it to a KNOWLEDGABLE shop, have them put it on the test bench and check it out. It may be the amp is screwed, or if it shows OK, then you have an install issue. cant really help you out more than this without more detailed info.....
In all my years of car audio, I dont recall ANY amp EVER sending out voltage on the inputs.....
now I completely Confused. New Z1 arrives and the same thing happens, so break out the Voltmeter and that’s the only suspicious thing I find.
Linear Mode
