Wartung

Regular maintenance helps ensure the longevity and performance of your wiring kit:

  • Verbindungen prüfen: Periodically check all connections (battery, ground, amplifier terminals) for tightness and corrosion. Loose connections can lead to poor performance or electrical issues.
  • Sicherungsprüfung: Visually inspect the 100A ANL fuse in the fuse holder. If the fuse element is broken, it indicates a power surge or short circuit. Replace with a fuse of the same rating only.
  • Drahtintegrität: Check the wiring for any signs of wear, fraying, or damage to the insulation. Repair or replace damaged sections immediately to prevent short circuits.
  • Sauberkeit: Keep the fuse holder and wire terminals clean and free of dirt or debris.
