    Random radio power down

    Does anyone know exactly what a scosche interface module does in a 03 silverado.. I don't have the steering wheel controls hooked up. I know the buzzers work through it but wondering if it also controls the power imput to the radio? Reason I ask is my radio will randomly shut off. But I can turn...

    Smoked amp

    On the off chance that it was a temp low voltage maby when I kicked the pilot sign on. Would adding a cap have enough to it to protect the amp? Starting to wonder if the beacons initial charge could have possibly done something? Sent from my SM-G903W using Tapatalk

    Smoked amp

    I purchased a alpine m500 tested at 571.. I'm well beyond loud I just like somewhat balanced with a little more bottom end... did not think a amp would overheat if muted or off.. if kenwood would have covered shipping I would have sent back just for curiosity but where I live shipping would have...
