November 3, 200816 yr Author okay thanks i was getting worried.. so im sure tha amp works then. i guess ill let you guess know how it turns out
November 3, 200816 yr okay, so it going into protect could be because i was testing it with 4awg and its just not enough powerDid it go into protect right before/at the same time it blew the fuse? If it did, then it probably saw a major drop in voltage at about the same time it blew the fuse, causing it to go into protect. I would upgrade the wiring, and then try it again. That's probably all it was.
November 3, 200816 yr okay thanks i was getting worried.. so im sure tha amp works then. i guess ill let you guess know how it turns out and btw and heres 2 very good cheap 1/0 wiring kits, comes with everything you need.http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_3935_Kicker+PKD1.html#http://www.knukonceptz.com/productDetail.cfm?prodID=KLM-AK0 Edited November 3, 200816 yr by RobClay
November 3, 200816 yr Author ok so it turned on then the music started playing and it went into protect and popped the fuse, and like i have said its not my wiring i was just trying to test it since i bought it used

November 3, 200816 yr Author plus i am running 2 batts and where i am putting the second one i plan on running everything under the vehicle from first batt to second then back under to the amp
November 3, 200816 yr Just to state the obvious it is going to take a lot more then just 1/0 wire to run that amp. Like batteries, alternator, and big three to name a few.
November 3, 200816 yr he said hes going to be running 2 more batts, and btw what kind of batts are they?
November 3, 200816 yr he said hes going to be running 2 more batts, and btw what kind of batts are they?He Said it while I was typing the response.
November 4, 200816 yr I hope all of those batteries are going to be mounted outside the passenger cabin.
November 4, 200816 yr Author what do you mean outside of the passenger cabin.. i have one under the hood and one back beside my box where it fits tight
November 4, 200816 yr I mean not inside where passengers are. They dont look like sealed batteries so they will vent harmful gasses inside the cabin.
November 4, 200816 yr Author i see yeah i am new to all this major electrical. so do you think if i built something for my second one to sit in and would cover it up it would be better
November 4, 200816 yr I wouldn't, the gasses produced are a very volatile mixture of hydrogen and oxygen also you cant mount the battery any which way but upright otherwise it will leak.
November 4, 200816 yr Author i plan on it facing up.. so how should i mount it? Edited November 4, 200816 yr by stuartgoodenough
November 4, 200816 yr Author yeah but where i have no room under my hood...i wish i would have known this before i purchased it
November 4, 200816 yr well you should have asked this question before you asked about that silly 200 db qustion! sell it... or take it back... get a sealed cell...
November 4, 200816 yr Author shouldi take both back and get a differnt set and whatt could i get for about the same price like 80 dollars a batt
