ChilliChicken Posted March 21, 2016 Report Posted March 21, 2016 So I just picked up a 3K amp, and so stoked to use it, just one problem. I can't power it properly! My current 110 amp alt is just not enough. I got voltage drops to about 10.5 and the car feels like it wants to shut off. I contacted Mechman and they said they wouldn't be able to do it. Any suggestions? My car is a 2.0L 2010 Nissan Sentra.

Esgedi Posted March 21, 2016 Report Posted March 21, 2016 Singer, mechman, excessive, US alt, etc. Personally, i'd say to replace your battery first. Don't trust a shop but you personally just smoked two decks, makes sense. 03' Trailblazer LTDayton Designer 6.5"s & Silkie tweetersDayton Audio Ultimax 18"Pioneer 9601 & 8604XS Power D34002 runs 1/0Singer 250
ChilliChicken Posted March 21, 2016 Author Report Posted March 21, 2016 Big 3 Have been done already. Battery is my next step. But I really don't want to put a bandaid over the real problem.
RoadWarrior Posted March 21, 2016 Report Posted March 21, 2016 Bigger alt , bigger battery if possible, make sure all the connections are tight and clean. You may also check to make sure your cables are OK , sometimes you will have corrosion leach up the battery cable and junk the whole thing.
everybodyknowme Posted March 23, 2016 Report Posted March 23, 2016 What are you talking bout. He said he knows he needs an alt.
