252chevyboyz Posted July 4, 2012 Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 I thought that thing didn't look right. I'm on mobile so I couldn't really tell in detail but hopefully its just the diode instead of something expensive or possibly having to replace the amp Quote - 1997 Chevy Tahoe- Big 3 (1/0)- Dual Autocraft Batts- JVC KD-A315 HU- AQ 2200.1D- 18" AQ HDC3- Box w/ Removable Port (6ft^3 @ 36hz & 6.7ft^3 @ 42hz)- 39' 1/0 & 13' 2/0 Flex-A-Prene My Selling Feedback Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yUmadBro Posted July 4, 2012 Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 Isnt this why we disconnect the battery when wiring things? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Semper Posted July 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 They aren't crispy nor burnt. It's some black bonding material they used I'm assuming. http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k270/Tigroarten/1-1.jpg However, by the power & ground terminals I noticed this; http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k270/Tigroarten/2.jpg PropertyCo, it does have a scent. More so solder-like than plastic to me. Also, it did melt the tip of the power wire. Like I said, I put the power & the ground wire into the wrong terminals in a rush. :L My girlfriend says it smells like formaldehyde. Quote New Setup; H/U; Pioneer DEH-80prs.

Chad Wilkins Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 I bought an mb quart onx1500 from someone who had did this.. Fried the protection diode. Cost 40 bucks to get it fixed... Hopefully your hifo has the same setup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
