ok so i got two issues going on
1. i wired in one of the lighted rockers switches from oznium to my strobes but when the light on the switch is on the strobes are off and when the light on the switch is off the strobes are on
2. i took my subs out the other day and when i put them back in they are making no where near as much bass as they were they are moving and have power but very little bass

1, yeah backwards switch.
2. Likely rehooked the subs up out of phase, 1 correct 1 backwards.
Yep, go to Oznium.com and look at the wiring diargram for their switches, you have the leads goofed...
Out of phase means you have the negative to the positive and vice versa. So look at your speaker wire leads again..

Did you unhook your battery or anything while removing your subs? Check your settings for your deck to make sure nothing has changed. If not that then phase could be an issue or even a loose wire. Check all your connections and your ground.

REVERSE POLARITY.. is it a lighted switch??

out of phase.... also check to see if you might of bumped the amp settings as well. OR... stereo.... OR.... loose wire.

so this is what happened took the subs out worked fine then when i reconnected them i realized the main fuse in the power wire blew after replacing that only one amp would turn on i figured maybe something went wrong with the wires so i took the wires from the amp working and connected them to the other amp still no power i figured maybe the amp is fried or something so i think im gonna scrap the old box and create something completely new and ill post pictures of how i wired the switch so ppl can better see maybe wat i did wrong

Did you check the fuse actually ON the amp that isn't working and double check the ground for it?
Don't quickly assume the amp is fried. 90% of the time it's something simple.

i checked the fuses on the amp i switched the ground from the working amp to the non working one thinking it was the ground also switched the power and remote from the working one still no power
