This section focuses on some of the vehicle considerations for
installing your new Punch Electronic Crossover. Checking your
battery and current sound system, as well as pre-planning your system
layout and best wiring routes will save installation time. When
deciding how to lay out your new system, be sure that each compo-
nent will be easily accessible for making adjustments.
Before beginning any installation, be sure to follow these simple rules:
1. Be sure to carefully read and understand the instructions before
attempting to install the crossover.
2. For safety, disconnect the negative lead from the battery prior to
beginning the installation.
3. For easier assembly, we suggest you run all wires prior to
mounting your electronic crossover in place.
4. Route all of the RCA cables close together and away from any
high current wires. this will help reduce noise.
5. Use high quality connectors for a reliable installation and to
minimize signal or power loss. See your Authorized Rockford
Fosgate Dealer for wire enhancements.
6. Think before you drill! Be careful not to cut or drill into gas tanks,
fuel lines, brake or hydraulic lines, vacuum lines or electrical
wiring when working on any vehicle.
7. Never run wires underneath the vehicle. Running the wires
inside the vehicle provides for best protection.
8. Avoid running wires over or through sharp edges. Use rubber or
plastic grommets to protect any wires routed through metal,
especially the firewall.
9. ALWAYS protect the battery and electrical system from damage
with proper fusing. Install a fuse holder and fuse on the +12V
power wire within 18” (45.7 cm) of the battery terminal.
10. When grounding to the chassis of the vehicle, scrape all paint
from the metal to ensure a good, clean ground connection.
Grounding connections should be as short as possible and always
be connected to metal that is welded to the main body, or chassis,
of the vehicle. Use of a continuity meter will confirm a proper
ground.
