skittlesRgood Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 lol we have all done bad late night posts. If I answered you in a well mannered, informative way, you asked a good question or had a good attitude. If I was an asshole, you asked a stupid question or you had a fucktard attitude... or I was in a bad mood.

melonhead Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 no You don't need to fuse the positive either right? Just cable from positive to positive and negative to negative? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Namosh Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 You don't need to fuse the positive either right? Just cable from positive to positive and negative to negative? Yeah, you should have a fuse at each end of the pos run. My Ram Quad Cab Blow-through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. Not just one. You want one close to each end of the wire. So, if something gets into the wire and shorts it out it will pop the fuses and kill the juice through the wire instead of sitting there arcing out until something catches fire.

EricR Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 Yes! Huzzah! Finally someone else who promotes running 2 god damn fuses on your front-rear power wire when running batteries in the back! Better safe than sorry. I have 2 runs of positve from the alt to the back batt and have 2 in front, 2 in back then one between my amp and batt. 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?

flashlight_65 Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 Yup 2 fuses. Within 18" of each batteries positve terminal and if I may make the suggestion of using 1/0 wire that way you only use 2 fuses instead of 4 unless you were talking about 1 run of 4g for positive and 1 for negative. I would still recommened 1/0 My builds: my caddy my 'hoe friends impala Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
