[QUOTE="edollete, post: 97414, member: 545901"] Guys, I need help. I decided to install a RF 1Farad cap to get rid of headlights and dashboard flashing/blinking. I had my cap installed at a local store am not sure if they did it right. Below is how the connected it. - power from battery to (+) terminal of cap - (-) terminal of cap to ground using an 8awg - from (+) terminal of cap to dist block also an 8awg But the problem is, am still getting that annoying blinking on dashboard and headlights when I turn-up the volume. I have a stock alternator and I was maybe the I need to change them. I usually play my system with an engine off. What do you I think need? Does the cap really help on the light blnking problem? Appreciate any comments/response. T.y [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif[/IMG] Eric:confused: [/QUOTE]
