amp cuts out


Recommended Posts

Posted

i have a t1000 and 2 p3 10's...now when i first got it it was fine but now when im stopped for a long time with the music at high volume the bass turns off but when i give it some bass the bass turns back on..so im assuming that the battery or alternator isnt strong enough so it cuts off at idle..so what do i get first a battery or alternator? i dont have the big 3 done

Stock electrical should handle 1000rms. Have you had your battery tested. Go to autozone and have them hook up to your car and test you electrical. It would be a good idea to do big three and better battery anyway.

I would start with a nice agm battery and do the big three because it won't hurt. What car do you have?

If I am not mistaken and someone can correct me. Red tops are better for this application. I stick with xs power but I had a p1000-1bd in a 2006 Tacoma and only upgraded the battery to a duralast platinum agm and that was enough. That was before I know about big three and all that.

The fact that you said it used to all work good and doesn't anymore at idle makes be believe that your battery is simply not holding a strong charge.
