Hey guys, I have a amp hooked up to my interior speakers and two other amps each for one 12 inch sub. my system works fine when the car isnt on, but once i turn on the car and start moving the system cuts out and on...i am running a normal battery and NO capacitor. Do you think maybe im running to much power? Do i need a better batter(i.e. yellowtop optima) or is my alternator going out? I already ordered a fosgate capacitor, do you think that would help. FYI i have 1 1000 watt amp, and 2 760 watt amps running in the sytem. I already checked for lose wires and i know that is not the problem.

Thanks

does it only cut in and out when you are moving or whenever you turn the car on? have you checked the fuse on your main power wire? if it is an agu fuse, they do sometimes go bad even though they look fine.

only when im moving...thats why i think it has something to do with the electrical system

that sounds like a lot of wattage for a stock alternator, that could be your prob

take a look at all your connections and fuses. makes sure it is all good. sounds like something is loose.

Could just be draining more of the battery than the alternator can replace. Does it cut out at low volumes (1-5) or just higher volumes or all volumes. Does it does it cut when the bass hits or just randomly. I know my cuts out at higher volumes because my subs/amp suck to much of the batter, but I also hooked up kinda half a--ed so that maybe be my problem. I'd check those variables and check back.
