Miguels Posted November 26, 2011 Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 check if you have good ground, and also check the fuses Quote my logshttp://www.stevemead...-my-new-set-up/my blow through loghttp://www.stevemead...future-updates/ 96 ss http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/164094-96-impala-ss-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katt Posted November 26, 2011 Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 Yes. Using small grounds can fry your amps, or they just wont turn on. But it also depends on how much power you are trying to run. And the distance. Always grind down the surface you are attaching the ground to. I was always told, Your ground is actually more important, then your power wire. ( Is this true? ) And does your power wire have a Inline fuse? Is the fuse blown? Did you forget to connect it at the battery, Or put the fuse in. Is your ground sufficient enough? Is the remote wire you are using live, Meaning does it have power? Theres some things you can check.

TheNewbie Posted November 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 Hmm still not working, i'd check the voltage make sure it's live but i don't have a meter unfortunately.

Jd1102 Posted November 26, 2011 Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 Any other ideas? Just rechecked ground. It's good. u can check your remote by using a jumper from power to remote just don't leave it like that just check it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastlane Posted November 26, 2011 Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 (edited) When grounding your amp, make sure you match up the power to the wire size, and that will give you the min wire to ground with, *HINT* The bigger the ground the better the connection. Just saying..Also make sure you ground to metal frame.
