Blowing Fuses when connected to power...Memphis PRD 1000.1 ????

[bigbswa]

Ran this amp in my other car for a few yrs. One day it just shut off. Checked the inline fuse to battery and it was blown. Put another one in and before I could take my hand off the fuse it blew again. Tried this again, same results. Opened up the amp expecting to see something wrong and everything "looks" normal. No signs of burns, no burnt smell.

Here are some pics. Any ideas?

Thx

Check all your wiring. Grounds and the speaker cables, make sure they aren't shorting out.

Thanks but I forgot to mention I already put another amp in its place. Just a cheap hifonics. And it has been working fine with no issues. Wired it up with a new fuse gave it power and been playing fine.

From the pictures it looks fine. But check for swollen or leaking capacitors inside the amp.

Will do.
