[QUOTE="IgnoreMe, post: 4056012, member: 551352"] 1) get rid of the cap 2) check your ground and power wires at [B]all[/B] connections points 3) if you are using the "chassis" as a ground, please make sure you got a clean connection that you sanded down and secured well. if not just do a nice full ground run all the way up to the front battery negative terminal to save yourself any head aches of possibly moving your "chassis" ground to yet another shitty spot bad/corroded/loosened connections are the cause of resistance. resistance is the cause of voltage drops...and on a 12v electrical system, sitting at 8.3v is quite a voltage drop. low voltage activates low voltage protection circuits. low voltage protection circuits cut out the amp to keep it from frying it self. you need to start at the basics.
