  1. You should try and find a performance alternator for your vehicle. They do make them for many cars. Hopefully, yours is one of the more common ones. Also, it would be a good idea to run a separate battery to run the sound system alone and have it hooked up to the performance alternator. This should solve the problem.

    If you have more technical questions, maybe going to your local radio install place can help with the details. I'm sure they run into this sort of thing all the time and have tips to help you get the results you desire.

    Good luck :o)


  2. check altenater, battery, and cap. if all good you might need a thicker guage wire. with that system i would use 4 guage or 2 gauge. if you change your wire or if you already have 4 gauge get an after market altenater that can handel all that power because most small cars have small altenaters that cat handle alot of power. if you dont know what kind of altenater to get go to a stereo shop and thell you what kind for your car.and also check your ground, your ground shoud be as thick as your power wire and as short as possible like under two feet long.

  3. check your battery

  4. add a battery your amp pulling more wattage than your alternater puts out

  6. bad bat/alt/capasitor

    if those are good check your wiring the gage sould be at least 4 check all the grounds and see if something worked loose

    if all else fails use jumper wires to temporary ture your single battery system into a dual 12volt battery ststem and see if this fixes the issue

    but i dont think that that amp is large enough to cause a issue with the current system that you have

    goodluck
