Just check the wiring, its probably just a loose connection. |

is it that your amp loses power, or the head unit & amp lose power, i had this trouble with too many accesories on the same 12v wire, i dont think it has anything to do with the amp. try having the stero on a seperate fuse and wire. my trouble was a tacho running on the same circut as the stereo, whenever the shift light came on, it was drawing just too much power and it made the stereo cut out til i changeed gears.
In your case it could be the alternator as well, when working properly, you accelerate & the additional spark from your coil drains the battery to about 9 volts, the alternator keeps the charge up to 12. if the alternator regulation isnt working properly, then all your electrics will be drained on acceleration |

Check your earth and power first, then connections, then check at the battery whilst running for voltage, it should be between approx 13 and 14.4 Volts, more than 12V to charge the battery whilst running. Otherwise come back with some more specifics after checkin these and we can chase the prob further... |
