Ok,
earlier today i was workin in my car with my amp. stuipd me, was messing with the connection of the REM wire (remote to turn the amp on) at the amp end with the car on. the other side is into the drivers side fuse box labled "ignition". anyways i try canking my car and it wont, so i look and of course the fuse is burnt. replace it and everything is fine. not to long after this my battery light comes on(right next to where the brake light is when you ebrake is on). i dont konw if its related or not. does this mean that my alternator may not be putting out enough amperage? is my battery dying? what does this dummy light signify? thanks for any and all help cormudgen |

ok, so yesterday i go to autozone and get them to test my battery and alternator. he says my alt is perfectly fine and that a full charge on my battery should solver the problem i get him to charge my battery and hten put it back in but the light is still on. he test again and the alt is still good but the battery is kind of weak. right after a full charge. my battery right now only have 400 cold cranking amps. he recomended i should get one with more thatn that. do you feel its needed? also i need to find a better way to run my amp if that really is drawing from the battery the whole time although i dont think it is. can i just put a toggle switch on that line and turn it off everytime i leave the car?
