Good bye, account! If you don’t pay close
attention in hooking up your stereo than you will be
spending your bank account. First, you must be sure
and disconnect your negative battery terminal. For
example, lets just say you weird together two wires
you knew went together, and by accident you push the
positive red wire aside, and it hit the metal box
that holds your radio. First you would hear crackle
pop, and smell smoke, and now you need to change your
fusses. Because the positive wire hit the metal box
and 12 volts of electricity just went all through out
your car.
Second, be sure not to use black electrical tape. To
explain, let’s just say you had your whole stereo
hooked up-perfectly enough or so you thought. But
instead of using wire connectors, you decided to use
the more cost-effective method of black tape. Now at
first you will have no problem, but as soon as that
wire gets hot no a hot day it melts the tape, and the
wire falls and hits the metal box again, than you
might as well throw out your 400.00 dollar piece of
metal because trashed explains your radio.
Third and final safety tip involves be absolutely
certain you didn’t hook up the positive and negative
wires together. To elaborate, you just got a brand
new stereo, and you had idea what you were doing, and
you just wanted it hooked up right away. You go
through there just pulling wires left and right, and
you clumsily hook up positive and negative wires
together. Well, you better get yourself a new car or
buy about a 1,500-dollar electrical system because
the positive wire has electricity running through it
and the negative wire doesn’t have any power, so it
will melt and start a fire.
