The room fuse keeps blowing as soon as I put one in.

I installed a sub and amp into my car it was all good and working for about 2 hours then the the cd player turned off and theres no power to the amp or sub. I checked the fuses outside and the "room fuse" is out so i put another 10A one in and POP it wet out straight away.

Also when I lock my car with the alarm, after 5 seconds the alarm just goes off. Even if I silent lock it, the alarm still goes off after 5 seconds

Interior light also doesn't work.

Took out the whole wiring of the sub and amp and put it together twice, and it worked for a few hours then the same problem.

More info:

The amp is a 2x200watt audioline, the sub is 250watt, wiring kit is 8guage.

Need help ASAP, anyone do sub installs or know someone who does?

sound like theres to much load on system, another problem i have struck is the globe in the interior light gets faulty and makes fuse blow, try replacing the globe in the interior light and then replace fuse and see if it still does it

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
