error code: id10T

oh, you forgot to max out all the setting on the amp. turn them all to the right as far as they go. gain/bass boost/HPF,LPF etc...

Why did you add another battery? Car not heavy enough? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

There goes your gas mileage //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

At least you will have plenty of traction in the snow... (in AL) //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

yeah.... probably not. and it's V-6 so it's decent on gas. heavy in the *** though, for sure. i might pull the 2nd g31 out for now. i don't need it in there.

oh, and this redtop i got for free (good friend). it was sitting for 2 years. no charger, no anything. and i put the DMM on it to see it sitting pretty at 12.54v //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

i have 2 kicker 15's on a planet audio ap500-2 and rockford power and ground wire

 

[jco1385 5,000+ posts]

what MODEL numbers? and what SIZE wire?

brands mean nothing w/o a model number.

 

[badguydotnet 10+ year member]

Kicker 07C15-4 nd i dont kno my wire size but it was the basic one at bestbuy the small one

If you don't know, then how in the hell do you think we can help? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wow.gif.23d729408e9177caa2a0ed6a2ba6588e.gif

i would hope some body kno what i was talkin about i got it from best buy nd best buy dont have tht mmuch power ground wire choices i think its 10 guage http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8286927&type=product&id=1172276905277

i'm not familiar with any of that equipment, but seeing as it's 2x 15" and a 10ga wire, i'd say the amp is pulling WAY more than 10ga can handle, thereby blowing fuses every time the power gets to it.

in short, you need to upgrade the power/ground wires.

what is the RMS rating of the amp? and at what ohm load?

thanks thats what i was thinking and yuh im new to this so some of these terms are new to me but the amp i using now is i got it from a friend last night and this is wat i found on it doing some googling on it 2 X 240 Watts RMS Power (4 Ohm)

2 X 500 Watts RMS Power (2 Ohm)

2 X 1000 Watts RMS Power (1 Ohm)

1 X 1000 RMS 4 Ohm Bridged

1 X 2000 RMS 2 Ohm Bridged

Dimensions 27-1/4" (L) x 3" (H) x 12-1/4" (W)
