[QUOTE="sicone22, post: 8720924, member: 680905"] a shop installed that? You literally have the correct battery terminals to install the wire why the....... just don't go back there. Tell your friends and their mothers, just do not bring your car back unless they are giving you money back and they never touch a car again. What is the other wire that runs off the fuse block and goes to a round fuse holder? that style fuse holder is crap, shouldn't be just hanging out vertical either at that as water gets in there it will sit and corrode the connectors faster as there is no heat shrink even. Yes ground needs to be confirmed good on that vehicle. the power wire needs to be moved to the battery and can be robbing power from the relay/fuse center especially if the ground is incorrect that will be drawing a serious load and that is the cars source of power, the ECU will not be happy with this. to the ground being 0ga- yes ground needs to be the same or more that of the power, it is a circuit. Why is there water on your amp? Keep it dry please! that 200a fuse is not indicative of what your amplifier can or can not pull, that is for the wire incase there is a short. the fuses in the amp are for the amp. It is not more resistance to have bigger wire and higher fuse rating, it would be less if anything but it is equivalent of having the correct sized, so you have headway so youre good there. the connections at the amp is astonishing a shop would think it is in the least "ok" and the power coming from the vehicles power distribution box is mind boggling.
