fuses and wiring with my new headunit + 6x9s, help please! Thu, 22 September 2005 01:30 Go to previous message
i recently purchased a new headunit (pioneer DEH-4650MP, 4x50w peak) and 6x9s (pioneer TS-A6970E, 330w peak, the power values will be relevant later), and installed them myself (first time)
after a couple of minutes of the headunit (i hadnt installed the speakers yet) working fine, it cut out as if it had lost power. so i pulled it out and had a look and found that it had blown a 1 amp fuse on the (yellow) wire leading to the battery. i replaced it, only to have it blow again after a couple of minutes of use again. this time when i pulled it out, i found that some of the old wire connections that i had neglected to check when i installed the headunit were coming apart, so i fixed them up and tried again with another fuse. by this time i had installed the 6x9s, and the fuse blew after only a few seconds
now to the power values i mentioned earlier. the reason, i believe, for this fuse repeatedly blowing is due to the dramatically increased power load, as the previous headunit was 2x25w, and the previous 6x9s were 90w peak

comments and/or other theories?
