has anyone evr seen a rockford amp or any amop that continues to blow my fuse by the battery as if there was a short but when power wire is disconected from amp the fuse does not blow?? the amp was working fine fro a few days and then it blew the fuse at the battery,so i checked my power wire for any breaks or anwhere it could touch the chassis and it was all good,when i disconect it from the amp it does not blow fuse but when connected to the amp it immidiately blows the fuse??

make sure when you re install a fuse the neg cable is off the battery ------------- I need quality equipment, feel free to donate.

Usually when that occurs, it means that the amp has an internal short in the power supply, basically it will need a new circuit board. Hopefully the amp is still under warranty.

Try a different amp and see if it still happens.

i had no amp to try at the time but the power input and the ground input had continuitywhen no power wire was connected to the amp, so i know there is a internal short in the amp.that sucks!!
