[QUOTE="JuicyJeff, post: 6257037, member: 613666"] Ugh getting so irritated. WELL, today i found that my previous power cable had gotten in a fight with my hood hinge in the corner and ended up taking a good chunk out of it. Thought it might have something to do with all of my trouble i have been having. So i go to my local car audio shop and pic up 14 feet of 4g power wire. Put my old inline fuse on it, and then go through the trouble of running it through my car again. THE WIRE SAYS PRIMARY WIRE ON IT. I was always to believe that all the wire was the same. Well when i put the fuse and shit on, i turn my car on. It blows the fuse. The wire was ran into a distro block and then to the amps. So i turn the car off, take the amp out, go to put a new one in and when the fuse touches the metal on the holder it gets a huge spark. So i say ok, unhook the positive of the battery and then put the fuse in the holder and then go to attach the power wire back to the bat. Well again, huge sparks. What did i do wrong. Im so confused. I though power wire was power wire. [/QUOTE]
