Default fried fuse?

last night me n my buddy ran the power cord for my sub woofer from my amp 2 the fuse panel for constant power, when we made the connection to the actual fuse plug-in i didnt know what it was for besides that it had constant power when it was turned on and none when the car was turned off. once we had it connected and everything was ready we smoked a phat Jay n then i went home. On my way home at the end of his street i put it in second after making a turn and after i accelearted above 30 the guage lights in my dash went out and my clock reset itself, my lights now turn on but they dont flip up and ****** i got in a fender bender couple days before hand but thats anouther story...need help asap

You will have to run the main power cable back to the batt, [you can't get enough current at the fuse box] if the amp is killing the batt. then the amps trigger lead is wired improperly and is live all the time keeping the amp on all the time, you will have to check and see if the amp trigger lead has power on it when the ign. is off, if it still has power, rewire it to an acc. circuit, if it does not have power and amp is staying on anyway the amp is hooped, if you have a cap on the system, you need to check it also 94

Hopefully that is nothing more then blown fuses, check the ones in the under dash and under hood fuse boxes.

What is the MMY of the car? 94
