taylorpro Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 loose connection or drawing too much current through it. IF it's just around the end, it could be caused by a slightly loose connection and light arcing on the terminal. Another possibility, is the wire isn't big enough for the amount of current draw at hand. Last thing i can think of, is there is some corrosion built up in the end of the wire from moisture. It would increase the resistance in the end of the wire and cause it to heat up 1999 Ford ExplorerTeam Sundown Audio4th 2012 Db Drag WF Street Stock 150.8dbYoutube Channel!http://www.youtube.com/user/BoomyurblownOperation 156 No wall Build Log!http://www.stevemead...x/#entry2196123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

03 Xtreme Fosgate Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 I just went back and looked at the past comments and noticed you're using 4ga for that Crescendo 2k,if that's the case then it's more than likely what taylorpro said and too much power for that size wire BUILD LOG-http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/179004-03-s10-xtreme-ext-cab-rf-build/ PHOTOBUCKET- http://s1354.beta.photobucket.com/user/03XtremeFosgate/library/truck%20audio%20rebuild Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djscrappydee Posted January 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 Help guys I was just playing my subs normal like I always do and I went and turned down the subwoofer level down on my radio and I turned it back up they made this scrapping/knocking noise when it was turned up half way. I took the subs out and looked at it nothing looked bad. Pressed down and it wasn't scrubbing. Wtf could it be?
