[QUOTE="jbl420, post: 8155775, member: 635283"] I don't know what is going on but I installed a qpower kit and I notice last week the fuse block was all melted looking and one of the metal blocks was melted sideways to the plastic holder the end that comes from the battery and goes into the block was melted and black. I cut some of the wire off clean and cleaned up the terminals and sanded off the fuse and the 2 screws and figured id reinstall for now till I could get another fuse block. Well a week later yesterday I turned up the volume to maybe 20 on the unit and the amps would cut out no sound. I originally thought it was a loose speaker wire so I repaired the connection. still yesterday I notice this so today I pop my hood the wire up front don't appear burnt again I head to the cap and amps and I notice the cap is blinking 0.0 so im thinking somehow the cap lost its charge when I took the wires apart last week idk. So im thinking I need to recharge the cap so I take off the power wire and I notice it looks alil burnt on the cap end what is going on??? I run a kenwood mono 1000w on 2 subs and a sony xplode 600w 4ch on the doors and my amps got 4g wires going from the cap to them and also my headlights don't flicker [/QUOTE]
