Re: Amp issues

Yeah,
You stated that you have it grounded to the tail light bolt, ok the amp uses way more wattage than a tail light first thing find a thick ground source drill a hole use a nut, bolt, and grounding star on it. Also you could go with heavier guage wire as 8 guage may not be enough, try four guage for both the ground and the power.
Also for that many volts to be used by the system I'd wonder if you need help charging the system also, maybe a better (higher) amperage alternator would help. Your talking a good quality one not one from the local parts dealer. Generally your looking at around a couple hundred dollars just for it, if not more.
Post back!
