[QUOTE="sholiz, post: 4931531, member: 590316"] so I fk'ed my truck up, this was mounted to my battery box which wasn't bolted down at the time, so when i went upside down the batteries fell out of the box and the ground was still connected to the amp, which was mounted on the battery box and pulled the wire out of the ring terminal. but, in doing so, it broke the board where the ground connects and bent the terminal on the amp. i haven't tested the amp since, but this is the only visible damage. i haven't dived into taking the board out of the amp to check it, but there's a small crack in the board next to the ground ... well, you can see in the pics.
