[QUOTE="IDSkoT, post: 4956719, member: 584344"] I have a Pioneer HU, and long story short my skateboard in my trunk took a whack at my RCA cables and tugged them out of my amp blowing my Pico Fuse... I've tried the wire wrapping... but either I **** at it or it doesn't work too well. The thing that displaces me is that it'll work right when I finish... But I guess due to the road vibration it starts again... very slowly it gets worse 'til I have to pop out my HU and fix it all over again. I was thinking, can I strip the RCA's, pull out the negative, reroute it to a ground and then solder it back onto the RCA negative? I'm not sure if this would even logically work... I'm just getting desperate. Another idea is drilling out a washer so that it will slide over the RCA in and act as a connector between the RCA cable and the HU. That's the basic concept behind the wire, at least. I just need to fix this somehow so I don't have to keep going back and fixing it. [/QUOTE]
