Uh oh, i'm guessing thats the maxximus.

Anything else you can tell us about when you were installing it?

Did the wrench hit the amp casing when you were tightening the terminal down? Was the amp on when you were installing that wire? All the wires were on the right terminals? Anything strange?

just seems like a coincidence that it went out. the way you're describing how you unhooked and hooked everything up, there should not have been an issue.

why exactly it happened, i dont know though. im almost willing to bet, it might be a somewhat common issue, or just a defected unit.

maxximus i bet. not many models use 4 powers and 4 grounds //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
