[QUOTE="des343, post: 8125561, member: 630654"] i have no problems unless i turn my system up so there is a lot of Draw..basically at a certain point the subs will cut out for a couple of seconds and come back on... im figuring this is a possible ground probem but could my ground for my 2nd bat cause this problem? my voltages are fine so im assuming its hooked up well enough but could a battery ground cause this? i dont have an IDEAL ground but it is solid i sanded the bed of my blazer real well and BOLTED my ground to it for my battery i then have my amp grounded to the NEG post of the batt...i think this is my problem ground if i have to guess but ive had it this way for a while no issues thing is i think my wires keep breaking at the EYELID i have 0 gauge ran to the amp and problem i have with these eyelids is that they seem to cut a lot of wires around them making the actual amount of wire directly connected to like probably about a 4 gauge could this be the problem? i figured that since the power only has a very short 2 or so inches that its like this and travels on less than the 0 it wouldnt be a problem but im beginning to think im wrong?? I know i didnt explain very well i can get a couple of pictures if they will help Thanks Guys [/QUOTE]
