Just blew a fuse...

[SAG3 5,000+ posts]

So I'm driving home from work with my shit up kinda loud and then the bass goes off. I stop and check everything and come home and pull a fuse out of my Viper, it's blown. My system has been installed for almost two months and this is the first time anything happened. I haven't touched anything on the amp in a while, the settings on the deck were how I usually have them when I turn it up. What do I do?

Put in a new fuse?

I put in a 25 (regular is 30) and it blew when it wasn't that loud.

Throw in the right size fuse. (30a)

You probably hit a really low hz note or something that blew it, not really a big deal. You can check over all your connections again if you want.

Why did you put in a lower fuse? They aren't just suggested numbers.. heh.

It was all I had at home, I'll go get 30's tomorrow. I was playing number 12 on Young Jeezy's CD when it popped, maybe you're right about the low note.

If your amp keeps popping fuses when you put new ones in (the instant it happens) then chances are your power supply is bye bye............

If I put a new one in, it plays fine till I really turn it up, then after a few minutes it pops it.

SAG3: you havent mention anything about your ground. how did you crimp your terminals? did you sand your ground? does they end of either power wire look burnt?
