LoudBimmer Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 After installing D3100, my light's started to dim and voltage dropping to low 12's, even high 11's sometimes. Before, I had stock interstate battery and kinetik hc1800 and my voltage stayed at around 13 volt's. Only thing's I changed was replacing stock negative wire with 0 gauge. My amp is sundown saz2500, setting set with o-scope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoudBimmer Posted December 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 battery is in the back. All connections are good. Stock negative was 4 gauge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassahaulic Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 Did you charge the D3100 before installation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoudBimmer Posted December 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 (edited) No, didn't charge it. It came fully charged, because I ordered it from audiosavings, and they had new shipment of them.

matt14 Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 I remember when I installed my 3400's they came with a slip to make sure that they are fully charged prior to installation.
