Re: Amp going into protection mode?

Bass Boost is Now Off.
Preamp Out is 2.2v.
I set the volume at 85% and tuned the subs from there.
The amp on the alt I belive is 90amp, can't confim by looking at the alt.

My suv is a 99' honda passport ex 2wd.

The models 99 or higher had a 90 amp, and anything lower seemed to have a 60amp. I can see the alt it looks decently in size.

I've added a battery neg to chassis, engine to chassis 4guage wires. To help stablize the voltage a little. They made no difference. The voltage still drops to 10-11v and I would assume lower the higher I turn the volume.

As I said I had the altchecked out, and they said it was still functioning, but barely above limits.

Next time I get the money im going to possibly buy a bosch 90amp alt for my suv. I can't seem to find any 3rd party alts that provide a higher amps.

I've been emailing some high output alt manufactures to see, becuase they say to eail them if your vehicle isn't listed or for a quote etc.

Thanks for the responses. Ill continue to provide you with information when requested.
