Connect the amplifier to the car's battery
Because of the extremely high current draw of MGAH11500 we recommended
professional installation of this amplifier. If you decide to install yourself, please make
sure to properly fuse the amplifier.
Make your power connections using a 4 gauge power wire for your connections. Strip one
end of the wire to connect to the terminal on the amplifier marked “+12V”. Loosen screw
terminal and connect bare wire and tighten. Use caution to make sure no stray wire
strands come in contact with surrounding terminals causing short circuits. Connect an in-
line fuse(200A) within 6” of the amplifier and then run the wire directly to the positive
terminal of the car's battery. Make sure to use an in-line fuse(200A) within 6” of the car's
battery to protect the electrical system and amplifier against short circuits and/or power
surges.
Connect the ground terminal of the amplifier to the car's chassis
For the ground connection, use a 4 gauge wire (black) to connect to the terminal marked
“ground” and then connect it to the car's chassis. Try to keep the length of the cable as
short as possible, preferably less than 6". Also make sure that the point on the car where
the connection is to be made is free of paint and dirt.
Connect the remote terminal of the amplifier to a switchable +12V source
This connection allows the amplifier to be turned on and off with the power control of the
radio. If the radio has a REMOTE output terminal, connect it to the amplifier's terminal
marked “TURN-ON” (using a 16 gauge wire or heavier). Now when the radio is turned on, the
amplifier will automatically turn on.
IMPORTANT! The amplifier is NOT fused internally. You MUST fuse the power line at the
amplifier and at the battery. Failure to do so could cause serious damage to the amplifier as well as
the vehicle. Before making any connections, disconnect the car’s battery until the installation is
completed to avoid possible damage to the electrical system.
