[quote=lonnie;361170]The pics will help a whole lot but there has to be a short somewhere cause you are blowing a 50amp fuse...thats alot of current. Also if it is fused at 40 amps and it blows then putting a 50amp fuse in there will likely damage what ever it is hooked to. The fuse is there to protect the equipment now if you are putting bigger fuses in there then you are going to burn something up If you haven't already.

which reminds me... when i was doing my wiring, i accidentally let my active powerwire touch one of the bolts holding my amp wall up, and it "arc welded" the threads together with explosion of sparks.

... its fused at 60A (the one it came with) and it didn't blow that fuse.


... just as an FYI of the amount of power here....
