[QUOTE="mrSilkie, post: 8363442, member: 665156"] Two things. Firstly, I've installed 5kw inverters running 500v back to front and they were fine, how come my headunit can't handle 12v? There should be a diode inside that prevents the voltage from flowing in a way that it isn't intended to AND if it blows then i shouldn't be blowing fuses because there should be no path for the current to flow because the diode when blown along with the fuse will both make an open curcuit which means that i should have no electricity flowing through the unit to short out the fuse. Yes, i wired it back to front, no, i think it was fucked in the first place [/QUOTE]
