Thats wut i did i put my wire threw the teminal and wrapped around the circle of the terminal. Then put the terminal under the nut.

 

[ravendarat 10+ year member]

OK no no no no no. The way to use that terminal is you put through about 1/4 - 1/2 and inch of wire and crimp the conector down, none of this wrapping stuff. You'll catch on here, just keep asking questions man.

Wut do you mean excatly by crimp

 

[ravendarat 10+ year member]

You use a set of crimpers and crimp the conection. Crimpers look like plyers and crimping is basiclly crushing the conector on in a way that makes the wire hold secure in the conector.

Well i dont have a crimper. Wut is wrong with wrapping it isnt touching the battery. And im not trying to be a smart *** or nothin.

Anyone else realize this arkansas guy is going to electrocute himself?

Whats wrong with it is its hack and its these types of methods that lead to issues down the road. Did you ever stop to think about why they charge 100 bux to put this in? To PROPERLY install an amp you need tools and know how, you have neither apparently. I can help with the no how but you need tools. Here is a little list for ya, you need wire stripers, crimpers, a drill, a wire brush and a lot of time. When you have these Items post back and Ill post a step by step of how to do this whole install

I cant believe this guy is so fuckin stupid.

Do you even know how to drive the car that your putting this in?

And your mom still wipes your ***, and ties your shoes, right?

Look, it's practically common sence, the tube is not supposed to be used at all, so if you have it in there, TAKE IT OUT. You want a GOOD connection (metal to metal) not (Plastic to metal).

On the battery issue, listen to ravendarat.
