CD Players shuts off

[bh04]

Can anyone give me step by step instructions on changing and alternator? Kinda sounds like much, but where i live, in town they charge $62 labor/hour. And they said it would take a couple hours because its a serpentine (spelling???) belt system.

I had the exact same problem with my head unit, it turns out that my cars electrical system couldn't handle everything all at once and at loud volume my stereo just wasn't able to get the power it required to perform so it shut itself off then came right back on again. This was so damn annoying and it was driving me crazy. I finally tried THE BIG 3 UPGRADE and problem solved.

If you don't know what the big 3 upgrade is, it is an upgrade of three very basic wires under the hood and is VERY easy to do...
1. Run a 4 or 0 gauge wire from your engine block straight to your batteries NEG
post.
2. Find a good, solid, metal to metal connection anywhere on the chassis or
body of the car and run another wire of the same gauge as you used in step 1 straight from that point to the batteries NEG post.
3. Run a third wire of the same gauge as you used in step 1 and 2 from the
POSITIVE terminal of the alternator straight to the batteries POS post.

That's all, you have just increased your cars electrical system by approx. 25%
