So basically I am moving so I unhooked the sounds for the space to move. In a hurry to get some sounds back I hook it up late at night when I got out of 2work

In a rush and not paying close enuff attention I put my ground in where my power goes and my power in my ground terminol.

I flipped my 250 amvp breaker on thinking im done and suddenly my lights in my car flickered and I instantly flipped the breaker back off since it didn't automatically...now the amp will not power on for any reason that I have fou d there is no strong burn smell there at first was a very very very faint smell I thought on the end by th terminols

I took the amp apart as it is right mow and I see NOTHING wrong with any transitors resistors capacitors wires nothing....

Only issue I just noticed was my rcas need to b soldered on idk when but it came lose and even partially off all together but this im guessing may habe been this way a while?

Also there is no way that would cause me not to receive power at all would it? Just maybe no signal or possibly protect mode I get nothi g at all. I've made this same stupid mistake a few times im the past but never damaging the amp maybe blowing the fuse at worst or it goes into protect

Any ideas what I did to it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

 
I really cannot believe how many people do that.

Even when I was a dumb azz kid with my first system I was always super careful to make sure I had the wires right.

Are people just stupider these days? It is not real hard to see which one is what.

 
Dude its a 250 amp exactly.what is called for on that amp manual specified its also what cones with the amp..********

Also work 7 days a week and get off from a 15 hour shift and say that **** my dic

Like I said was tired and in a hurry and.Uve done thisnbefore with a couple of amps never came close to frying it even watched someone blow 7 fuses like an idiot doing the sane thing on a ap1500 d never touches the amp just blew the fuse.

Was funny to watch tho
