alright heres the deal, i installed an interfire amp into my g/f's tercel about 3 months ago, its worked fine and all, but then about two days ago after it rained in my area she told me that when she tried to listen to her music it sound all distorted (i have all speakers and sub hooked up to the amp) anyways, i went to go look at the amp, and i found it soaking wet! i guess the trunk in her car isnt water seal tight cuze the amp was wet, i immediatley unhooked the amp and have had it with me ever since, the way i look at it, as soon as the amp gets fully dry it should run again, what do you guys think? |

once electronics get wet they usually dont work right again, if it even works again, what i would do is GET HER TRUNCK SEALED you can do it yourself go down to like autozone or if u have a car stereo store near by and ask them for seal tape basically or sumthing that will seal the edges |
