ke70dave Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 undo everything you have done. replace the fuses, let us know how you go. never wire a subwoofer to a cigarette lighter.... lights should be ok though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I second this, the cigarette lighter cannot supply enough voltage and enough current to sufficiently power a subwoofer amplifier. Purchase some good quality 8 gauge wire or larger gauge (4Gauge / 2Gauge etc.) depending on the power of the amp and run it to the battery of your car propperly but please note that not all cars are made to handle aftermarket audio systems. To save money manufacturers use the bare minimal in cars therefore most stock electrical systems cannot deal with it. Hence why my alternator in my AE92 kicked the bucket a few months back.
