[QUOTE="Cpyder, post: 5473337, member: 599745"] Yeah, I second the action of buying a DMM before you start. Saved me a lot of money that I would have wasted trouble shooting. My problem was that my 3 amps were pulling my batt below 12V or whatever threshold and then turning off. Solutions: Pull less amperes with your amplifiers, do big 3, upgrade to a better battery, run larger power wire, get the correct in line fuse, turn gains down, upgrade alternator, etc. Anything else guys? (Or girls to be politically correct.) But if you're only pulling 350W, forget about all those except the in line fuse, gains, and check grounds. [/QUOTE]
