[QUOTE="Deiimos, post: 8874767, member: 682903"] Based on your first post I'd start with the ground, reinstall the amp, and then run a different wire straight to the battery negative or engine block, if you have any spare wire to do this test. Can of course also inspect the terminals at the end of the old wire, look for rust or corrosion on the old wire too / contact points, or even just cut off a few inches and put a new ring terminal on or whatever it has on it and see if that fixes it. I'm leaning towards ground because you said: "Car is turned on, if I touch the positive and ground terminal at the AMP, the highest voltage I get is about 9v. However, [B]if I touch the positive terminal on the AMP and the ground to the chassis of the car[/B], I get over 14v"..... So this makes me think it's the ground, and where I would try first.
