DONDOLO Posted June 12, 2014 Author Share Posted June 12, 2014 Is it the same fuse, that powers your cig. lighter. My ex-girlfriends 05 WRX cig. lighter locking nut came loose. Every time she pushed or pulled the cell charger out. She would pop a fuse. Other then that, need to dive in to the wire harness & look for shorts. Best of luck, getting it all straighten out. No it doesn't power the cigarette lighter. But thanks. Electrical issues suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DONDOLO Posted June 12, 2014 Author Share Posted June 12, 2014 Yeh me too. But I appreciate the help I didn't buy the previous owner had an amp in it. This didn't happen until I took the ski out but idk how that could effect anything.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuses just don't blow. Sorry I was rushing. The only thing that has changed in the car since I bought it was that I took the amp out of the car. But I can't see that causing electrical issues.

Max Capacity Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Did you seal the ends of the wires that came off the amp so they don't touch or ground out. Did you remove all the wire they added to install the amp ? Or was it a factory amp that just plugged into the OEM wiring ? 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD).

But I didn't remove all the wire completely from the car yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Capacity Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 You may want to do a contineuity check on the wires to make sure they are in good shape. I'm thinking one of those wires from the dash area to the old amp in broken. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD).
