jeremy m Silver Member Username: Shade Moxee, Wa U.S. Post Number: 720 Registered: Nov-06	Posted on Wednesday, August 27, 2008 - 00:24 GMT yah, the fuse holder is next to the amp between the batts....it's also fused by the front batt too. and the fuse cap, turned brown in a spot and under that spot the actual fuse was black. asfor the wire i'll have to get back to u on that.

Post Number: 6663 Registered: Mar-04	Posted on Wednesday, August 27, 2008 - 00:35 GMT Check your resistance across the fuse-holder. I bet you have a bad connection. Your fuse or holder my be defective or just not a good enough connection. Also, make sure your wire gauge is up to par.
