smashedz28 Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 Looks like the wire broke after the terminal. Whatever you did is holding the wire in the terminal but tearing off after it, i would replace that wireyeah, but what i found weird was the fact that it wasn't only this wire, it was 2 of my grounds my main+ and my amp+ Sounds like the way you soldered it. Ive never seen that happen before. Crimping may solve your problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soccerballzs Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 You may want to use die-electric grease on wires before inserting into fitting. Is you Cad wire CCA? If you soldered did you use the wrong solder? Use Marine grade heat shrink it has a waterproof adhesive built into it also to make it waterproof. Normal heat shrink is not marine grade http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/garage/vehicle/2438-jeep-commander/I Pioneer P99RSAmpere 38002-Ampere 125/44-6.5 inch Hertz HSK XL Mids4-8 inch JL Audio ZR Midwoofer 2-5.25 Satori Mids2-Morel Tweeters, 2 Hertz Milles 3 inch on A pillars2-Hertz Silk tweeters DC Audio Level 5/12 Skyhigh Wire Mechman 320 XS Power D3100MO Funniest Thread of the Year 2013: http://www.stevemead...dy-being-a-pos/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normal heat shrink is not marine grade yeah its cca, I'm thinking it was the soldering, not sure if ill want to use heat shrink again, can't/won't really tell if my wiring is going bad (future references) so for now i think ill stick with crimping 2 Soundqubed SQ1-2200D 1 Soundqubed Q4-120 4 American Bass VFL 65MR 2 American Bass HD 15's 2 American Bass MX-250T 2 American Bass MX-252T 4 XS Power XP950 Tons of Sky High Car Audio Cable "Do a proper install, something your happy with, Fuck everyone else...... improve in time, where you can..... its not rocket science..."
