Where to wire my voltmeter


Recommended Posts

Posted

I am getting ready to upgrade to a SAZ3500D, and a SMD 15". I already have the big 3 with 1 run and going to do another run of 0 gauge right to the alt., but where should my 2nd run of neg. go? But this is my question;

I know my whole electrical system should be the same voltage everywhere, but should I wire my voltmeter to the amp inputs to get a true reading? Thank ya'll for your input!

Build log coming soon! (I wasn't going to do one, but this is the SMD forum, and I could use ANYTHING free!)

oh yeah, I will run the meter wires down the power wire going to the front and mount the meter on the dash.
