[QUOTE="jb2xx, post: 651492, member: 556714"] Seems that the 40A fuse that is in the fuse block going to my kx400.1 amp is getting melted from the top end that is coming from the battery. Nothing happens on the output end going to amp. Seems that solder that is within the casing of the fuse is being melted & drips out. I have been through 3 fuses already.
