Before i do this i had a short the other day when installing my amp and burnt the wires (remote wire that connects to amp-cigarette lighter) but all the other fuses was good and in fact the fuse didn't blow out it self did i damage the Fuse Box or should i still follow the direction about fuse 15?

Buy a new fuse box?

Check, tape, and cover the wires near the C115 connector as detailed in the TSB.

Whoa, how did you wire the amp???

Did you go the battery direct?

Did you fuse the power wire about 16 inches from the battery?

When you looked at the wires, were any broken or insulation torn?
