Frequently Asked Questions - MXABMC2BT Memphis Audio

How do I pair my phone with the Memphis Audio MXABMC2BT?

Press and hold the power button for 1.5 seconds to turn on the unit. Enable Bluetooth on your phone and select 'MEMPHISBTR' from the available devices. Once paired, the BT LED will glow solid blue.

What mounting options are available?

The kit includes bar mount brackets for bars up to 1.25" diameter and post mount brackets for surface mounting. Choose the option that best fits your vehicle.

Can I use the system without Bluetooth?

The MXABMC2BT includes Bluetooth by default. If you want to use a wired source, you would need the MXABTRX controller (sold separately) which offers AUX and USB inputs.

What should I do if there is no sound?

Ensure the amplifier is receiving power (check the 7.5A fuse), your phone volume is set to at least 3/4 max, and the Bluetooth is connected. Also verify speaker wire connections are secure.

Is the system waterproof?

The Bluetooth controller is sealed and waterproof. The speakers are designed to resist water and elements, but full submersion is not recommended.

How do I control playback?

Use the buttons on the Bluetooth controller: play/pause, volume up/down, and track forward/backward. The controls operate in Bluetooth mode.

What is the warranty coverage?

Contact the dealer or Memphis Audio customer service at 800-489-2300 for warranty service. A Return Authorization number and proof of purchase are required.

Can I add more speakers?

This model is a 2-speaker system. For a 4-speaker setup, consider the MXABMB4BT/6MC4BT models. Mixing is not recommended without proper amplifier configuration.

How do I mount the speakers to avoid interference?

Ensure the mounting location does not obstruct handlebars, steering, or other moving parts. Keep clear of electrical, fuel, and hydraulic lines. Tighten all bolts securely.

What to do if the Bluetooth is not pairing?

Make sure your phone's Bluetooth is enabled and in discoverable mode. Verify the MXABMC2BT is powered on (LED flashing). If issues persist, try restarting both devices or consult the manual for troubleshooting.
