Can a fuse be blown without looking blown?

Question:
My 2ga power wire just stopped delivering power and the only thing that it could be is the fuse, it dosen't look blown though because the metal inside isn't severed. its a little melted and contorted but not enought for me to think its blown...

Howo to intall subs?

Absolutely! If its brown or discolored and not blown, it's getting hot and is about to.
There is no reason other than a bad installation job that causes blown fuses. Period.
If the max current draw on your power wire is 200 amps, you'll need one slightly larger, like 225amps.

Anyone know how to get around the parking brake wire on car tv installations?


Again, THERE IS NO REASON OTHER THAN A BAD INSTALLATION JOB THAT CAUSES BLOWN FUSES.
Good Luck!

It's fairly common. In all likelihood a new fuse will solve the problem until you blow it again.

New coupe, ipod qusetion?

Yes. What you want to do is pop it out and do a continuity check. Best way is to use a multimeter, if you happen to have one. But if not a simple cheapy continuity tester works fine (from the hardware or automotive store). It should have 2 leads, just hook them up to the 2 ends of the fues and it should either beep or light up an LED depending on what kind of tester you have. If you have continuity (electricity flows from one end to the other no problem) then the fuse is good. If not... toss it out.

Car Subwoofer Help! What Brand? Please Help!?

-----Yes. Try replacing the fuse. If it looks even a little bad, it could well be bad. There may be a hair-line crack in it, or a break where you can not see it. You can also check it with a multimeter set to measure resistance. A good fuse should have about zero ohms; a bad or blown fuse close to infinite ohms. ---Jim, an amateur (ham) radio operator
