OK so yesterday I was putting my Amp and subs in my can. I have a stock radio with a inline converter. I hooked up the amp ans every thing. the seconed i hooked the the remote wire and the radio turned on. then the amp let off a poff of smoke so i um-hooked the damn thing and stared over now i dont have any speakers and i am getting pissed. i was wondering if any has ad this happen or know what happened. At this point i am temped to go buy a new H-Uint or ues my old one.
If this makes no sencse that cus i am really PISSED OFF.

you replaced the fuse and it worked.........ive blown tons of fuses and i dont think ive seen smoke come from one yet.......check and make sure your amp is working 100% cause usually if you get a cloud of smoke like that......

He said a resistor was blown in the amp. I am guessing his remote or power line touched ground or chasis. This is one of the purposes for a resistor since a fuse can do nothing with guarding from reverse wiring.
