ok so I have a 2000 Neon with a UDP and and alt ODP ,to keep the voltage at 14.1volts my question is that I am running a Infinity 300rms monoblock and my stupid lights dim all the time... so much that my stereo shuts off.... wont blow fuses or anything just resets itself.. a new pioneer Mp3 Deck. and I am running a 1.2 Faured Cap. and it is still dimming.. and sugestions???
and when i say dimming i mean the deck light dim first then the whole car.. I am running HID's and I dont want to hurt them...

and if you dont know what "UDP, and ODP" mean dont respond.

umm first off...

u dont need to be mean and tell ppl if they dont know what something means then they shouldnt respond..ur not going to get a very nice welcome here with that kind of attidude. instead of being like that.. just write UNDER DRIVE PULLY and OVER DRIVE PULLEY


as far as u question.. do a search on the "BIG 3 UPGRADE" its a process where u upgrade the grounds under the hood, most ppl have said that this helps eliminate or complete takes away the dimming..

Yup check your grounds. Might want to post in the stereo forum.

Cables to the amp might be to thin, or the cables from the amp or battery minus to thin.
