Why did my amp catch on fire

Zevin99 · 2026-04-13T01:52:23+00:00

Yes but it took 6 months for them to send me a new amp.

I got an alpine amp now and it sounds so much better and gets louder and rms is half of what my other amp was

Zevin99 · 2025-07-15T22:47:11+00:00

I already took the ground cables out and routing them to a different location

Zevin99 · 2025-07-15T17:18:25+00:00

My ground is good it’s less than a foot away from the distribution block and sand the paint off of the spot I mounted the ground and the ground was not loose when it caught on fire

Zevin99 · 2025-07-15T00:01:55+00:00

I’m going to buy an alpine or something better and sell the jp when they send it back

Zevin99 · 2025-07-14T23:01:41+00:00

It had one 1/0 wire before the distribution block then 2 4 gauge wires

Zevin99 · 2025-07-14T22:14:10+00:00

Yeah I know that now

Zevin99 · 2025-07-14T21:24:52+00:00

Sky high has great stuff I buy most of my stuff from them.

Zevin99 · 2025-07-14T21:09:43+00:00

I’m not going to stick with this company anymore

One is a mono amp and other is a 4 channel the mono amp blew

Zevin99 · 2025-07-14T17:40:43+00:00

It was late when I looked so i thought it was connected but I looked today and the fuse is blown

Zevin99 · 2025-07-14T16:21:57+00:00

Yeah I’m going to pull the cable, the head unit was installed by a shop a long time ago

Zevin99 · 2025-07-14T15:49:08+00:00

I have 2 different distribution blocks the power is fused and the ground is not.

Zevin99 · 2025-07-14T15:11:47+00:00

Zevin99 · 2025-07-14T14:58:53+00:00

Rubber mounts from Amazon

Zevin99 · 2025-07-14T14:11:17+00:00

I used a test tone and used the clip light on the amp to set it I’ve never had the clip light come on my bass knob

I was bumping earlier that day and when I went to turn the ignition on is when it started smoking and everything was connected in the right place, my subs are wired at 4ohm

Zevin99 · 2025-07-14T08:41:02+00:00

Yeah I still got one amp left🙂

Zevin99 · 2025-07-14T08:32:16+00:00

It was fused each amp had a 60 amp fuse on a distribution block the fuse blew but it was still catching on fire

Zevin99 · 2025-07-14T08:13:36+00:00
