1992Chevy K1500 Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 What size did you originally have? That's a lot of damage. I'd check the entire length of the wire for other damage if I were you.

EricR Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 i think you are correct. i was thinking leave the 12 sitting in the box in the hole and duck tape from the bottom of the sub to the bottom of the baffle so the sub doesnt free air. would that work?

HaMSaMMiCH Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 x2 on the check for damage, but i have seen those glass agu fuse holders melt because the fuse was a different brand from the holder and didn't fit completely perfect causing resistance and heat....... try maxi or anl fuses next time.

Cantrell2500HD Posted October 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 Well I'm gonna start off with the Big 3 first, but when I went to measure my wires I ran into a question. The wire from my alt runs into a little red box, then connects the alt with a big wire that one way goes to my battery and another goes who knows where. What do I do about that?! 03' Reg Cab 2500HD Alpine 9807 H/U Infinity Ref 6.5" Front Speakers Pioneer 4"x6" Rear Speakers Quantum Audio 1100.1 Amp PPI 5 Channel Amp Kicker 05' S12L5's <~ thats plural baby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1992Chevy K1500 Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 Not sure where the other wire goes, but that's a splice type box. It connects the 3 wires together. Not sure why they put it there from the factory. Trace the wire back and see where it goes.

Both maxi fuse holders were melting fuses ! (they were stinger btw the HPM with volt meter ). if you do anything go with ANL... stay away from maxi's ! 95 Civic Coupe Pioneer AVH-P7600DVD Kinetik HC-1200 In Front Kinetik HC-2000 In Rear Memphis 16-MCA3004 2 X Memphis 16-MCD1000 With Maxxsonics MLX-100 2 X DC LVL 4 XL 12's Pioneer Premier TS-C720PRS In Door's Kenwood KFC-6982ie In Rear Deck All Memphis Wire/Rca's and misc.

If your running more than 1500w and need 1/0 and ANL fuses because 4awg can only carry a little more then 100amps. CAUTION!
