[QUOTE="zjohnson1, post: 7495221, member: 636387"] I got my system all wired up (Stock 1994 Acura Legend HU with LOC, 4ga Knukonceptz power wire to USX-4085 amp, CDT CL-62 components, and a Nakamichi 10" subwoofer) Headunit is temporary. All my wiring looked good so I went to check the front components before I connected the sub. The amp didn't come on so I turned everything off and started checking my wires with a multimeter. Ground and power were good, switched power was fine as well. Hooked it all up to try again, power cable last. Genius me forgot to disconnect the battery this time, sparks and smoke ensued when I began to connect and I freaked. Immediately stopped and turned everything off. Opened up the amp to find this: [ATTACH=CONFIG]26527742[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]26527743[/ATTACH] Saw stuff coated in that black soot. I started brushing it off and pretty much everything looks fine except for those few resistors that popped up in the corner. What are those? Did I totally mess up my amp? 30a plug in fuses are still good. Just for grins I tried power again and the 80a AGU in line fuse blew. Any idea what my issue could be? (Obviously those blown resistors now in addition to what it was before...) Would new resistors from radio shack or something work for those or do I need something special? I feel so stupid right now.lol [/QUOTE]
