having issues with the sub, signs lead to poor ground, but i cant think of how to improve it
anyone got suggestions/pics of where/how you've grounded your amp?

 

Mine is on that rear ledge behind the seat , ground off the paint drilled a hole a put a BIG sheet metal screw through it torqued down and painted over where it was grinded.

 

i poked a hole in one of the rubber cab grommets and went straight to the frame.

 

i used the bolt for the seat track on mine

 

The most important thing is getting a good clean connection and ALWAYS grinding/chipping paint away from area will produce the best results. Paint is an excellent insulator.

 

yup

 

Seat belt holder connected to the body

 

i was in a hole where the jack was...guess ill get some steel wool and try out the seat belt holder

 

Mine is grounded in the engine bay. Of course I used romex wire so it was just easier to do that.

 

^^ isnt it a good idea to ground your amp, somewhere close to your amp? i think so, not positive tho.

 

Your right, its better to get as close to the source of power as possible.

I ground away the paint where y jack used to be, and jus put a self tapper screw through that.

 

i used the bolt that holds down the bottle jack and tire iron thingy bracket

 

yeah the spot where the jack was seemed like a perfect spot...i ground away the paint and used a copper ring crimp bolted right on....amp turns on and i can see the voltage spiking on the meter....used a continuity tester on the speaker wire and it lit right up....almost ready to admit defeat and let best buy figure it out

 

Just ground it to the seat track. Every system I've put in I've grounded it there and it works perfect every time.

 

spent all day screwin with the setup and couldn't get my bump on, so im just gonna get these and rewire everything...hopefully ill have my thump back within the week
