I hooked up 2 amps a cap and 3 subs and the inside speakers all to the headunit.Now after everything was running I went to turn it on and it didn't so I charged it.Now the guy is complaining that his alarm is not working.What could have caused the problem and what can i do to fix it?Thanx

Is the battery old? What brand battery is it?

Did you charge the cap properly?

Maybe his alternator is bad and needing replacement.

now I was checking all the wires again today and saw a red wire that is hanging now that red wire is connected to the alarm and splits and one wire is hanging near the radio harnes lose and the other is running switch in the glove box.Also the locks and the unlock works and the siren is still working the only problem is the light stays on and the alarm doesn't active when u open the door.
