evermaxx Posted August 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 Went and bought the black and deker battery charger.. Back battery was sitting in low 11s, got it on the charger now.. It's at 13.4 now, only been on there for 15 minutes.. Should I let it charge more? And looked at my back battery and the positive from the back bat to amp was fried at the battery.. Cut and crimped a new wire. I believe the front bat was at 12.8 when I put it on the DMM. gonna charge that one too. Also, on the front fuse there is a lil burn mark.. I'm guessing from the low voltages. Team Subsonic Lows Get your garbage EMF products of my amp bitch Man....it makes a nice work bench Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDrifter Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 Let it charge for a few hours Replace the fuse. And wires shouldn't fry. That's heat generated by the resistance of a poor connection. How are you crimping your wires? ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goldeneye4564 Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 use the vice at work to help with the crimping. I have never had a loose connection since. edit-- if you are still getting loose connections, put a long pipe over the vice handle for more leverage, or stop being a pussy! haha jk.

evermaxx Posted August 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 Yeah they're crimped with vise grips they are damn tight.. I can pull and it doesn't move one bit.

SnowDrifter Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 Yeah man you gotta solder or get/find someone with a proper crimper and lugs. Just because you can't move them doesn't mean they aren't electrically goodProvided the bolt holding the terminal was tight and there was no paint or something in the way I'd bet that's what caused the issues ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evermaxx Posted August 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 So the back battery has been on the charger for roughly 5 hours. When it's on the charger it's sitting at 13.5, I take the charger off its at 11.5 - guessing this battery is taking a shit on me?
