Take out the capacitor. You don't need it, and if it isn't charged it will be a dead short and blow your fuse. 1. Remove capacitor 2. Check your fuses 3. Check that your ground wire is contacting metal and not paint |

Have you checked the voltage at the amp with a multimeter? |

whatever you replaced (chassis ground) put it back the way it was, and see if it works then. if not, then all i can say is to do what jeremy said.*not send him the subs and amp* lol |
