[QUOTE="soundstreamer, post: 1215389, member: 558924"] foil over fuses = bad you should always find the source of blown fuses. in your case it is either: a)your amp is trying to pull more power than your fuse(and wire) is rated for, or b)you have a thin/bare spot in your wire housing that is allowing an arc to the chassis of your ride from time to time. when does your amp shut off? when you have the volume very high, or when you hit a bump on the road? solutions: if your amp shuts off(fuse blows) while you are blasting your music, you need to switch to a larger guage wire. if your amp shuts off while you are playing dukes of hazard over speed bumps, you need to find where your wire is rubbing(prolly where is goes through the body into the cabin). fix it right or get fire insurance on your car.
