[QUOTE="Hansolo_evox, post: 8722363, member: 681508"] Hi guys i have a 2011 mitsubishi lancer evolution x gsr without the stock rockford fosgate audio system. Anyways when i bought the car it came with a cheap chinese aftermarket radio. 5 years ago I had a audio shop wire in a lightning audio 1000w max mono amp i believe with 2 12 inch mtx subs i believe. Anytime i would put the volume past 52(almost max volume) the cluster speedometer and rpm would drop to 0(still had power tho) the lights in cluster would dim and i would get airbag codes and all wheel drive codes but the sound from the radio WOULDNT cut out or anything. This really didnt bother me because i would never put the volume past 52 anyways. (Shop claimed it was because of a cheap shitty radio/head unit) Fast forward to recently and i havnt been driving the car as much. So again all this time past 52 volume (almost max) the cluster would go crazy but the sound from radio worked fine. But NOW the cluster goes out of wack when the volume is at 36(not that loud). So i figured it was the battery because i havnt been driving as much. Tested the battery and it said had to be replaced.btw never had any issues with starting the car. Replaced the battery with a ac delco 800cca but im still having the same issue! Checked ground wired from battery and amp respliced wires that care connected to amp and subs. All wires behind the radio seem intact. Any ideas?? Could it just be the radio finally went to ****? [/QUOTE]
