I DONT GET IT IM ABOUT TO SELL IT ALL!!!!


Recommended Posts

Ok

A: He does not need a HO alt, 1700wrms can be ran from what he has. A HO alt would be nice but it is clearly not the problem here.

B: Buy a volt meter and measure voltage drop. It is possible that your alternator is going bad and is not charging the batterys as it should be.

C: Do the big 3, it should have already been done a long time ago

D: Get rid of the stinger splitter and go directly to the HC800 with both amps (that is your splitter)

E: As someone said before check speaker wires and to make sure the speakers arent blown. There could be a short somewhere.

And lastly you said there grounded to "good grounds" what are they grounded to?

The best ground you can ever get in a vehicle is your battery, in dual battery setups it is smart to run + and - cables from the amp to the back battery. and then 1 run of 1/0 from the back battery to the thickest part of the car you can find. For instance i grounded my back battery to the strut tower.

hhhmmm the bottom of my rear seat folds up and the body of the car i took the paint off it and grounded it to the body? on both amps

if i found a better ground would it allow or create more voltage?

take your run of 0 ga from the from batt to the back batt THEN to both amps

well see i dont think that battery is enough for both amps this is why i have it wired like this

and i most likely going to add another kinetik HC1800 this weekend

so the HC800 will get wired to the doors amp then the HC1800 will go to the JL 1000/1v2

ya do that an if that doesnt work, i thin its a ground issue

To be dead honest, I would just run the + and - from battery to battery and screw the ground on the chassis. You are completing the circuit either way. And a better ground would be a drilled hole, sanded, to the actual chassis.

I'm willing to bet there's a bottleneck of power from front to back. Have you tried just eliminating the back battery with the current setup?

PS You NEED a voltmeter. :lol:

Need an install? Hit me up.

no cause that battery the kinetik was helping out with the dimming of inside lights...cause i have HID's headlights 10K they dont dim im thinking cause of there balast are like mini amps? idk but they dont dim but them HC800 was helping the bass and inside lights
