Swordlordboy1234 Posted May 19, 2013 Report Posted May 19, 2013 Try hooking up your amp with someone else's electrical. Go get like 8 feet of each power and ground and find someone close with beefy electrical, swap out those wires and then turn it up.... That will isolate your amp from your car, batteries and alternator. If it still drops crazy its a hungry amp, if not keep looking for the answer in your jeep My old YouTube channel : http://www.youtube.com/user/SwordLords1234?feature=mhee My old build log : http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/161872-96-accord-b2-sundown-sky-high-dc-power-re-re-build-for-heatwave/page-37 My New Build - http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/207041-2016-mazda-6-sql-build/ 2016 Mazda 6 Touring JL Fix 86 - OEM signal correction B2 prototype DSP 6to8 B2 Ref63 - 3 way active set 2 B2 Class H quattro's 1 B2 Zero.5R @.5 2 B2 HNv3 12 d2 B2 SLIP40 - Lithium in the trunk Northstar Group 35 under the hood 100ft 2/0 welding cable 30ft 4ga welding cable 20ft 8ga welding cable All stinger OFC speaker wire Soundrive custom RCA's Tons of attention to detail....

sphinxbccp Posted May 19, 2013 Report Posted May 19, 2013 Another dumb question, do you have anything in line of the alternator plug? Like a voltage boost module? If so maybe that's throwing it off? Or the sense wire is in the wrong spot? (just throwing ideas, tell me to stop at any time haha) Build log: Click Feedback: http://www.stevemead...xbccp-feedback/ 03 Chevy Blazer - IPad Air 2 - ALPINE Head Unit - 4 DC XL 18s - 2 DC 3.5k - ALPINE TYPE R 5.25 COMP - 3 ALPINE TYPE R 6.5 COMPs - DC 175.4 - DC HO Alt - D3400 - 4 XP3000s - KNU 0ga - 60 SqFt Damp Pro Lots more...

If so maybe that's throwing it off? Or the sense wire is in the wrong spot? (just throwing ideas, tell me to stop at any time haha) With a self exciting alternator, all that plugs into the alt is the oem power wire (plus i have the big 4 done) and then ground (which is with 0g wire). There is no harness for this jeep...it is a "plug and play" 1 wire alternator
LoganWade Posted May 19, 2013 Author Report Posted May 19, 2013 there is the oem regulation "black box" that is no longer hooked up to the alt, it just lays to the side covered up with electrical tape so that it doesn't ground out to anything
Johnp71 Posted May 19, 2013 Report Posted May 19, 2013 Have you measured the resistance of all your in-line fuses? plz do if you haven't done this yet. 2006 P71 270A Mechman alt. 2 XS power D3100's, 1 under the hood, one in the trunk.

LoganWade Posted May 19, 2013 Author Report Posted May 19, 2013 yes I have, it had very little resistance between .01 and .02
LoganWade Posted May 20, 2013 Author Report Posted May 20, 2013 I also checked the resistance in all of my grounds...same thing they all had very low resistance
evermaxx Posted May 20, 2013 Report Posted May 20, 2013 03 jeep with the same problem.. Damn jeeps Team Subsonic Lows Get your garbage EMF products of my amp bitch Man....it makes a nice work bench
LoganWade Posted May 20, 2013 Author Report Posted May 20, 2013 That's what makes me wonder if in fact it is the jeeps themselves..either computer or sosomething that is somehow overriding our extra voltage and amps from the alt....
