Guest hawkesy2k8 Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 I bought a new dvd screen tuesday and wired a sub and amp in i turned it up and was really loud then it sundenly just turned off? Ive checked every fuse in the fuse box and it still doesnt work?? im gonna buy a whole new set of fuses later and swap everyone or will it be a relay or fuse box?? Ive noticed that sometimes my my lights are fine but when you turn the main beem on one light goes off and the other goes into main beem??? are fuse boxes hard to fit? Any help would be appriectated.

Guest Alanman Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 I'd say you've just blown the fuse. If I remember right its the fuse that looks like an interior light. It does all those things you described. How have you wired the AMP in? If you're using the same feed for the DVD and the amp then thats why it blew. You need to run a seperate feed to the amp with its own in line fuse. The blue wire out of the back of the headunit then goes to the AMP switch. Don't cut corners and just put a bigger fuse in or the next thread you.ll post will be about your car setting on fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest markeyboy Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 more than likley a fuse - especially if it took all of them out, fuseboxes aint that hard to change, few plugs and bolts that hold it in place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest hawkesy2k8 Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Sorted i had trouble with indicators and rear light after. it was due to the fuse box being corroded i sanded the fuses a little and the fuse holder's and problem solved. Thanks for the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
