k3n12ock Posted August 26, 2009 Report Posted August 26, 2009 Just wondering if I should just install it from the head unit, i.e. the power/remote and ground it from there OR run wires from the amp's power/remote/ground and use those instead. 05 xB - (2) EVIL 18s - (2) BC3500s - NO WALL Channel 1: http://www.youtube.com/k3n12ock Channel 2: http://www.youtube.com/MrK3n12ock2

k3n12ock Posted August 26, 2009 Author Report Posted August 26, 2009 I ran the power straight from my battery and hooked the remote and ground to my head unit Any difference than from the amp? Also, where should I test voltage before installing the volt meter and then comparing and adjusting the volt meter after. 05 xB - (2) EVIL 18s - (2) BC3500s - NO WALL Channel 1: http://www.youtube.com/k3n12ock Channel 2: http://www.youtube.com/MrK3n12ock2
BulletInjection Posted August 26, 2009 Report Posted August 26, 2009 Depends, if you want to what voltage your amp is getting then wire it back there and test your voltage there to calibrate it, but if you want to know your battery voltage wire it there and calibrate off the battery. MULTIMETER FTW My build: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...8920&st=100 http://www.youtube.com/Bulletinjection

Just not sure where to install it/test it. 05 xB - (2) EVIL 18s - (2) BC3500s - NO WALL Channel 1: http://www.youtube.com/k3n12ock Channel 2: http://www.youtube.com/MrK3n12ock2

Just not sure where to install it/test it.Well I hooked mine up to the battery so I could see how much of a drop I get at the battery My build: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...8920&st=100 http://www.youtube.com/Bulletinjection
k3n12ock Posted August 26, 2009 Author Report Posted August 26, 2009 Well I hooked mine up to the battery so I could see how much of a drop I get at the battery Where did you test voltage? At the battery? Did you then adjust it on the voltmeter? 05 xB - (2) EVIL 18s - (2) BC3500s - NO WALL Channel 1: http://www.youtube.com/k3n12ock Channel 2: http://www.youtube.com/MrK3n12ock2
BulletInjection Posted August 26, 2009 Report Posted August 26, 2009 Where did you test voltage? At the battery? Did you then adjust it on the voltmeter?yes, I used a multimeter to find the voltage on the battery then calibrated the unit.

k3n12ock Posted August 26, 2009 Author Report Posted August 26, 2009 Alright cool. I borrowed a nice DMM from my bro too, thanks. Off to install it. 05 xB - (2) EVIL 18s - (2) BC3500s - NO WALL Channel 1: http://www.youtube.com/k3n12ock Channel 2: http://www.youtube.com/MrK3n12ock2
