2 X 50 Watt Truck Amp (120-1971) Connecting Power Faxback Doc. # 6714

Follow these steps to connect power to the amplifier.

1.Disconnect the positive (+) wire from your vehicle's battery. This reduces the possibility of damage to your system during installation.

NOTE: You must reset the clock, the radio's digital tuner memories, and other time/memory devices when you reconnect the battery wire after wiring is complete.

2.Connect the amplifier's black (ground) wire to a nearby part of the vehicle's metal frame.

NOTE: Many modern vehicle parts are made of plastic or other materials that do not conduct electricity. You must connect the black (ground) wire to a metal part that is not insulated from the vehicle's frame by one of these non-conducting parts.

3.Connect the red (power) wire directly to the car battery's + 12-volt power source.
