My Boyfriend installed a JVC KD-G510 stereo in his 1988 Mazda 626 a little while ago, and the stereo cuts out while the engine isn't running and the key is in accessory mode. While the car is running the stereo works fine. He has installed a new alternator, 750 cranking amps battery, with a constant 14volts to the system at all time. He has a 12 inch kicker, 300 watt amp, and a power cap in the back. He says that it even does it when the fuse is out, and the amp isn't getting any power at all. All of his stereo stuff has been professionally installed and inspected several times. No one can figure it out? Does anyone have any ideas???????? He's losing his mind!!!! |
