yea, somewhere your power wire is grounding out...check all the connections, look for cut shielding and loose strands of wires

The fuses in his amp are blowing, not the power wire.

Alright well I'll go buy new fuses tomorrow. I looked for any cuts or anything in my power wire and couldn't find any. so i guess ill try disconnecting my sub then trying again //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

I would try to disconnect the battery terminals then all the speaker terminals on the amp, replace the fuses in the amp, reconnect the battery terminals then the speaker terminals to the amp, if you still have a problem try tracing your power and your ground from the amp and make sure you have not either burnt it or if you have any nicks or cuts in it.
