P4killer_ Posted March 1, 2013 Report Posted March 1, 2013 Also when i first set it up, it played fine for about 10-20 minutes http://www.flickr.com/photos/topshottaz/8519240556/ had it like this for about 1 year now with no problems with my other amp doesnt look very sanded imo. NO PAINT or coating or w.e strictly bare shiny naked ass metal. we should be able to see it its so f'in shiny looks kinda textured imo and sand liberally, meaning a decent area. not just the size of the terminal like double the size of terminal. needs to be very solidly bolted or screwed or w.e you should have to slam that thing to get it to move. if it wiggles at all its not good enough Setup: 2010 Hyundai Elantra Factory Unit via 4 chan NVX LOC Excessive Amperage "H/O" Alt Xs D3400/ Xs XP3000 Big 3. 2 Runs of +, 2 Runs of - DD M3b and 2 12" AQ HDC4s
T.A.G. Audio Posted March 1, 2013 Report Posted March 1, 2013 Sorry did not notice the pic. Unscrew it sand it down to bare metal. After that let me know what happens. You can just use sand paper if thats all you have just make sure to sand for a while. And while your at it go ahead and sand down the bottom of the ring terminal as well. 03 Ford f150 2 Sa8 v2s Ap 1800d...

Thomas Posted March 1, 2013 Report Posted March 1, 2013 Almost 100% of the time it's a heat issue, a ground issue, or too low of an ohm load when amps go into protect.
Dylan Mohammed Posted March 1, 2013 Author Report Posted March 1, 2013 Alright, thanks for the responses, going to sand it, and try again.
newls1 Posted March 1, 2013 Report Posted March 1, 2013 yay!! A thin sheet metal painted ground ftw ... HAIL YEAH! Prob on a uni body car to... even better! Even if the ground isnt your issue, it sure will help you in the long run to REDUE it to something a little more acceptable then that I love my staffie So anti FACEBOOK it isn't even funny
T.A.G. Audio Posted March 1, 2013 Report Posted March 1, 2013 For sure! But for now we need to see if that is the problem. 03 Ford f150 2 Sa8 v2s Ap 1800d...
