[QUOTE="NFrazier, post: 7900105, member: 571239"] We can agree that he needs to get it looked at, by who is another question. I'm kinda of taken back by your comment "type of connectors" used. Let's go over the shops in my area. Besides my shop, every "specialty shop" around me uses T-Taps to do ALL interfacing. The Best Buy down the street only uses military splices and solder on all their interfacing.... So I'm confused on the "connectors" they use.... Speculation is the act of speculating which means "to meditate on or ponder a subject;" with synonyms of: "conjecture, guess, surmise, suppose, theorize." Unless you went to the OP's house and looked at the install and tested it, you are speculating. Once again, I'm not saying the install is NOT to blame, but I'm not saying it is. If he can take pics of the install then I'll go more into my speculation of the issues at hand. EDIT: Lets further investigate this. Apparently a battery issue is not UNCOMMON with the Insight: [URL="http://www.edmunds.com/honda/insight/2010/consumer-reviews/car-dead-for-the-third.html?style=101153492&sub=&reviewId=459553617"]http://www.edmunds.com/honda/insight/2010/consumer-reviews/car-dead-for-the-third.html?style=101153492&sub=&reviewId=459553617[/URL] [URL="http://priuschat.com/threads/dying-batteries-in-honda-insight.1748/"]http://priuschat.com/threads/dying-batteries-in-honda-insight.1748/[/URL] [URL="http://www.edmunds.com/honda/insight/2010/consumer-reviews/2/"]http://www.edmunds.com/honda/insight/2010/consumer-reviews/2/[/URL] [URL="http://www.edmunds.com/honda/insight/2010/consumer-reviews/very-disappointed-in-honda.html?style=101153492&sub=&reviewId=234301729"]http://www.edmunds.com/honda/insight/2010/consumer-reviews/very-disappointed-in-honda.html?style=101153492&sub=&reviewId=234301729[/URL] [URL="http://www.edmunds.com/honda/insight/2010/consumer-reviews/lots-of-problems.html?style=101153492&sub=&reviewId=229681699"]http://www.edmunds.com/honda/insight/2010/consumer-reviews/lots-of-problems.html?style=101153492&sub=&reviewId=229681699[/URL] That's just some of the complaints of the car's battery dieing or needing to be replaced within a short time.
