hdorre Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 Ive always been told that you fuse based on wire size. I suppose that doesnt really matter in this situation. Youre using 1/0, right? A 200 amp fuse will be fine.

Youre using 1/0, right? A 200 amp fuse will be fine. yes im using 1/0 wire. I also was told the fuse is to protect the wire not the equipment, only to protect equip[ment in a short. I will go with 200 amp fuse for each as i have thse fuses at home.

C-Fizzy Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 On my 3500.1 I've always used a 200 amp fuse on each input. Check the wire that goes from the batt to the amp. Their is obviously something wrong at that point of your system. Make sure the wire is secure in the ring terminals, No shorts in the wire, no corrosion, etc. Quote under construction I hate People with crappy primered cars rolling on hubcaps that are louder then me. u hate c-fizzy?

Lbox88 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 (edited) Does it smell fried? lol, Make sure to give the wires a solid little tug to make sure they don't pop out at the amp or the batt.

MIKE-2U Posted July 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 No smell at all, not warm or hot at any part of the amp, never a static noise or anything. Like i said seemed as if the remote lose power just turned off.

Wire from battery to amp should be fused for the amp. Quote Rest in peace, walled 87 accord build log 03' Corolla build with AA Mayhem inside.
