Re: Wiring problems

Goodness, the currents they must be seeing to make the wires move...

Yea... they should also check to make sure that they are using the correct amperage breakers and the right gauge of wire. Like the others, check your polarity on everything, and make sure you have the wires going into the right side of your spikes. It sounds like you have the power going into the M+ and M- on the spikes. Big BIG no no! Make sure you attach them to the 12V+ and the GND connectors on the other side. Of course, red goes to the 12V+ and the black goes to the GND.

Also, if you can't figure it out, upload a picture or PM me and send it straight to my email. Please make sure it is high enough quality to follow your wires around your board.
