If we took every thread like this that could have been prevented by disconnecting the negative battery terminal first before starting work...it'd be longer than the Type R thread //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Let me see if I understand this- your ground and power wire touched, made a spark, and your amp quit.

Then, you decide to touch the SAME WIRES together again, to see what would happen?

Wow....................just, wow.

Anyway, check your fuse.

And dont touch power and ground wires together.

man thats what i thought...On my other amp my fuse never blew...it just went protect and cut bac on...and touching the wires together dont do anything really...only when they are connected to the amp...that why i did it to see if i was still getting a charge from them...plus it looks pretty cool....

Man your gonna be pissed for me saying this but I think half the people on the board are already thinking this, You are clearly to stupid to use this gear, you should return your stuff before you light your **** car on fire.

yeah, because touching power and ground wires is the best way to tell if the power wire has juice or not.

I always touch the pos and neg cables to check for spark. How else are you going to tell if you have enough proton and neutrons?

SoulCavy, you ovbiously have to many neutrons on your cables so go down to the local pigglywiggly and get yourself a fresh can. LOL...
