MTX subwoofer/amp combo issue - CELFLEX - 09-21-2012
So its not the radio?

I guess not, just got done looking at it again and all of a sudden there is no more draw. all i did was unplug and replug everything back in. i'm gonna leave it overnight and see what it does.

i have had tons of audio equipment in my car, and basically u have to run depending on the amp size a bigger battery, and bigger wire, if you want to spend the money get some 0 gauge wire, and when she plays her beats lol.. make sure to turn the radio off and let the battery charge before she turns off her car, i have done that once and it left me stranded.. just let the car idle for like 5 minutes with the radio not going... and about it drawing power just look for a wire not hooked up somewhere

Jake its a 2000 century. It was my granfathers car and we bought it from the estate when he passed away last year it was so cheap we couldn't pass it up it was only $1000 and only had 60k on it. I fully intend to pull the fuses instead of the radio way less work involved. i'm just hopeing i don't have to pull it. |

Not sure what i did but i've been keeping an eye on the battery and its not getting drained at all now for some reason. i'llpost up if anything changes and cuetip i just transfered it to a new vehicle it was origianaly done by a fully qualified well known audio shop.

well u never no, audio shops usually mess up, like they have videos of people doing some shitty wall building, or not hooking up the woofers right, or not grounding stuff correctly. thats why i do it myself.. so i no where everything is at and if something goes wrong its on me not on the audio shop which may not fix it, and if they do they may charge you to fix it
