Trying To Figure Out My Voltage Issues...

Glad to hear you got it working. If you still notice dimming issues I'd try the big three next.

Oh, and if you didn't have a lock washer, make sure to check your ground now and again. The vibrations can cause it to get loose.

do i ground the amp to the pos or neg of the rear battery? im guessing negative but i could be wrong

absolutely negative! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif But if you already moved your two ground spots and it's working, don't worry about it. Only bother with moving the amp ground to the battery if you have ground noise or continue to get electrical issues.

Also, only your battery needs to ground to the chassis. The amp should ground to your battery.

Wrong. A ground is a ground. It does not matter where you ground it out to. You can have your battery grounded along with your amplifier. They dont have to run to the same ground spot or into one.

You on a power trip or something? Have to find fault in something to feel superior? Your post was pointless.

He was having grounding issues and in my opinion it's best practice to keep everything in your trunk on one ground. In your opinion it's not. Fine. Doesn't mean either way is wrong.
