chapo123 Posted August 10, 2010 Report Posted August 10, 2010 this happened to me. but for somereason the fuse by the battery blew. the amp isnt internally fused so i got lucky i guess. still works fine lol and plus the car was off Quote Steve I don't know why but everytime I see your new paint I want a Dr. Pepper...... is this normal? heres an analogy for you. running a high power stereo without a fuse is like having unprotected sex with that hot chick at the bar with the sketchy sexual history. Sure you may be fine and nothing happens but that one time something does happen you're fucked. i dont want woofer broke like bass sound clip clip and voice coil overheat 2 sa12s, saz1500 build log http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/91183-chapo123s-sundown-build-log/page__gopid__1250604entry1250604

xawx Posted August 14, 2010 Report Posted August 14, 2010 (edited) My dumbass did the same thing, but I blew the external fuses on my db drive, and the sad part I wasted about 12 fuses until I found out what I did lol... Amp works fine though now Edited August 14, 2010 by xawx Quote
raolito1980 Posted August 14, 2010 Report Posted August 14, 2010 Thats funny. I did the same thing last month with my brand new SAX 100.4D. Luckily it still works thanks to the 3 30 amp fuses it has!! I was so out of it, I really thought it was gone. Bought some new fuses and it lit up like a CHAMP!

Eric B Posted August 14, 2010 Report Posted August 14, 2010 On most amps, it should blow the power supply, although I did it to my kicker kx650.4 once and it didn't pop nothing.

Sampsonite Posted August 14, 2010 Report Posted August 14, 2010 I think you'd be surprised to know how many people have done this. Definately not an uncommon mistake Quote --Sampson 816-591-6592 www.kcrimshop.com
Alex K Posted August 14, 2010 Report Posted August 14, 2010 I've done that too!! Blew my power wire, but the amp still worked 100% fine after Quote 2006 Nissan Z Track. My Feedback Thread i used to think a band pass was something you were around your neck or something.
Rebel4055 Posted August 14, 2010 Report Posted August 14, 2010 This wasn't done with a amp but my friend was wring up his dirt car and he did a few wires wrong and one wire literally disappeared and the other was half there LOL Quote Rest In Peace mother.
