Cuseikan Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 I just added another run of 1/0 to my big3. And now my volt meter in my dash is below the half mark when i'm at idel. But when I only had the run of 2/0, at idel it would stay a littel above the half mark. Did I do something wrong by adding antoher run of 1/0 to my 2/0? But before whith the one run of 2/0, at night my lights would dimm a littel when I was on the freeway. But now with the second run they don't dimm at all.

emperorjj1 Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 lol that just means your amps are actually getting power now... but to get power that means it robs power from other things hence the lower indash volts... now if you had one at the amps i bet you would be surprised J.

mrwigglezdj Posted November 20, 2006 Report Share Posted November 20, 2006 yea mine was tight as well, if you have the materals it wouldnt hurt to have a ground on the frame and one on the motor, but hopefuly thats what it is , a bad ground, and not a bad alt Americas loudest work van2006 iasca heavyweight bassboxing champion at 150.4 db with 60second average TL8 memphis PR15s,12 memphis PR6.5's coax,4 memphis PR 1inch tweets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
