I'm not sure what went wrong, we were hooking up my car stereo, so that the speakers worked and the settings stayed saved. We were almost done with it, it was put back in the dash all screwed in and everything, the speakers worked, the settings were saved and working, and the radio was off. We were just putting the last few peices together and the next thing we knew smoke was coming out of the dash, lots of smoke. We ran over to the battery to unhook the battery connecter (we had to run it straight to the battery). We had it hooked to the positive side. Smoke was pouring out from there too, and i could see the wires glowing orange. After prying the battery connector off the smoke went away and it cooled down. WTF happend here? The wire burned from just below the radio all the way to the battery.
