Hey all what's up.
I just installed a new audio setup in my '94 accord. (HU, amp, Sub) and I'm having a problem with my sub cutting out intermittently. At first I thought it was the ground however, I'm pretty sure it's grounded properly.
After playing with it some I discovered that the sub plays just fine when the car is running on battery but cuts out when I turn the car on (Not playing at all). My amp shows a green light and does not appear to be going into protect mode. So now I'm wondering what I should do to either A. Lower my power demands. Or B. Up the available supply.
I just had my battery tested and it's fine
So here's my setup.
I've been wondering if a larger battery would help or perhaps a capacitor. I would however, like to avoid buying an aftermarket alternator if possible.
Any thoughts are appreciated //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
