trjohnst Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 So I was doing a demo earlier today with my new Crescendo BC2000D and then the amp shut off. Ended up being a blown fuse under the hood on my fuse block. Does anyone know why this would happen? I have 4 guage wire and had a Rockford fuse block with a 60Amp fuse. My car was running also if that helps anyone. My ground has been the same for a long time...im not sure if that could be the reason. 1991 Accord Audioque HDC3 15" (Copper)<--Sub Audioque HDC3 15" (Copper)<--Backup Sub Crescendo BC2000D<--Amp Big 3 1/0 Knu<--Wiring Eonon 3.5" DVD<--Headunit Infinity Kappa Perfect<--Mids & Highs 2nd Stock 80Amp alt. 1991 Mustang 5.0 Too many mods (Sold) 1991 240sx SR20 Red Top Too many mods (Sold) 2004 GTO Just starting mods Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supercharged DCs Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 Facepalm, over and over, every time... I'm not going to finish that sentence. Use 0gauge wiring, and get a 200 or 250A fuse. Come on man, why the fuck would you waste money on good equipment and not even take care of it? Bassless once again. Can't seem to keep a system for more than a few weeks Saving for a '06 Nissan 350z, look for build around June 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrionStang Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 300 amp fuse. You fuse the wire, not the amp. SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louisiana Bass Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 You need 0 gauge mate, and you need a much bigger fuse than a 60 amp fuse. My old RF punch p200-2 had a bigger fuse N8. No homo...unless you want there to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jd1102 Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 So, I've heard 150-200, 200-250, and 300amp fuses. Little confused to say the least if your amp has fuses on the outside however many amps worth get a close match to that so say u got 3 40 amp fuses in amp get the 150 amp fuse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
