yeah

so that makes me think i blew my fuse up at the batt

but it got changed out two days ago because the first one blew but i put a bigger amp in the back so i put a bigger fuse up front and all day yesterday it was going without any probelms

haha no took them out the amp - also wanted to check fuse

because last time i tried touching the screws that hold them in place or whatever you call it, it didnt show up as i had power when i actually did

so i toook the two out and somewhere from the front (hooked up to batt) and back the power is lost?

so you took out the ground wire. why did you touch the screws together. i really hope you didnt touch metal to the + and - on the amp when you did that.

and i seriously cant understand that last sentence. its like you cant speak english when you live in america.

Are you running 4ga power wire from front to back when ur amp takes 0ga, or what? it makes no sense

no i didnt touch them together, sorry i worded it poorly

ill retry that

the ground and power were taken out and i checked the voltage in the power wire and theres none there

so that means my fuse at the batt is blown?

im not sure if it takes 0

it could just never looked it up because i already had 4 ran

[cubs_fan0718]

what amp do you have?

[cubs_fan0718]

if ur amp takes 0ga and ur running 4ga there is not enough electricity to give that amp the juice it needs to see power.

lol u guys are tippin me out. this is what u can do. check ya remote wire since that turns on the amp, next check ya fuse up front and see if its popped, then check where ya ground is grounded and see if its tight. when u do step one take a jumper from the power wire to the remote wire spot and touch it if it comes on its, ya remote wire that is at fault. do that then come back!!

jmitch i saidz that already
