[QUOTE="toddvb, post: 4438055, member: 591238"] I've got a capacitor installed to keep my lights from dimming and today I noticed that the ground wire near where it is attached to my truck's frame is frayed almost to the point of breaking I believe. It's mounted to the same bolt the amp's ground is. How do I handle the repair without damaging things or hurting myself? Can I just unhook the positive cable then the ground, make the repair then hook back up in reverse order? Do I need to discharge the capacitor first? I've got the card that came with the capacitor to charge it. If I read correctly on the card it says to hook up the card to the capacitor then connect the positive and negative wires together until it is discharged. I need to take the fuse to the positive cable out first right? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
