[QUOTE="joker4096, post: 7018307, member: 578187"] I have recently installed the amp in my girlfriends car and the previous owner already had wires ran for a system. the ground was not all that great but i used it for a while. The amp will go into protect after about 10 mins every time we turn it on. It gets very very hot. I thought it was the ground so i changed to a new one and still the same problem. I did not check the ground for resistance yet. i measured the voltage at the amp and it shows 14 volts the entire time. I also disconnected the subwoofer and it still goes into protection after a few minutes of being on. I also moved to a known good ground on the car and same issue. Sub is a dual 2 ohm T5 tarantula amp use to work great in my civic about a year or so ago any suggestions on why it does this? [/QUOTE]
