jizzybizzy Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 me and a friend of mine (who for the most part know what we're doing when it comes to basic installs) were hooking up a system in a kids truck. it wasnt anything big... just a simple amp/sub setup running wires and everything nothing i havent done 100 times... the set up was basically setup and we were almost ready to bump... and so we connected the power wire to the battery and then we plugged it into the amp... and we heard the starter click... and wer're like wtf? then we did it again... and the truck almost STARTED. if i didnt pull the wire away im sure the truck would have started? has this ever happened to anyone else??

roscoe1129 Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 Does he have a remote start? some units if you disconnect the battery it will start on its own. Hook it up again and if it starts step on the brake to kill it.

Deafdreamz Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 What it amounts too is somehow the starter got a surge of power. I doubt it actually would of cranked over but it would of tried. I honestly dont know without taking a look at it.
