[QUOTE="wew lad, post: 8696050, member: 665412"] Shotty connections could definitely be the issue. Go in and use crimp connectors, especially on the power, ground, and remote wires. Even better would be to go in and solder and heat shrink the wires but it's not the easiest place to get to. In the future, avoid twisting wires together and electrical taping them. It's the equivalent of putting only water in your coolant system. It may work, but it's not going to last. It's worthwhile to pick up a decent wire stripper, crimper, and some butt connectors off of amazon/ebay/harbor freight etc Did you change any of the speakers? [/QUOTE]
