Amalan Posted July 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 might want to rewire your car and what kind of wire u got knukonceptz and yeah i need to find a new ground... He's running at 1 ohm the earthquake is not very stable at 1 it does great at 2 ohms Its even more hungry at 1 ohm trust me I used 2 of them amps for over a year yeah well i mean i was running it at one ohm ever since i bought it from you which was ages ago, just when i moved it to my other car it started to cutout. but i think i found out my problem, my kinetik is idling at 11.8 volts so i think i need to find a new ground or something and hopefully thatll raise it back up cause the pa amp makes it dip down to 11.4 on full tilt but im almost 100% positive thats whats causing the earthquake amp to cutout cause the earthquake makes it dip into the 10s and then cutouts out as soon as that happens. thought i had a solid ground too i used the rear seat bracket which is metal and connects to the body so im not sure where to ground now.

ChevyBoy Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 If your alt and batt up front checked out ok sounds like your kintic took a dumpx2. just sitting with the car running, that batt should be ATLEAST 13.5. depending on your voltage drop (from the wire) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
