sooo since i took tomorrow off to go to the drag track with my friends and now it looks like its going to pour all day i decided i will re do the wiring in the amp racks..it started off nice but now i was just trying to get it done for this weekend so i could go out and try it..since it will be cloudy and 60's and my head unit and two batteries wont be here till tuesday i might as well take the time to run these wire again...im also going to have to build my custom sub box that will hold my 2 10" polks and a mount for my ZLD...this whole wiring thing is a pain haha..the hardest part so far was running the tower speakers..anyone know of any nice tower lights? the old one i had were from liquid audio and were toast when i took them off...will add pics hopefully tomorrow

I'd say you missed something

Maybe its the batteries that wont arrive until Tuesday?

J/K! Gives us more info on what the system and battery scheme consisted of before the upgrades and what you just installed.

hooked up all the batteries everything works, fuel will prime but when u turn the key to start it you get nothing

Sounds like the helm BUSS has power but the main starter cable could be connected to the wrong spot or not connected at all. Is the shifter in gear? Kill switch?

Break out the volt meter start by checking voltage at the main cable on the starter, then the solenoid wire while someone holds the key in the crank position.

Nice work, Moto! That would have most people running around in circles for a while.

When you see a troubleshooter or maintenance guide and it says, "inspect wiring" or "inspect all connections", that is exactly what it is talking about.

Sometimes, it's just good being lucky!

that's some good karma paying back being able to find that needle in a stack...
