i just had to share this

[smoker]

here is what this guy did

Read some stuff online and followed a suggestion to ground it closer to the tuner instead of the battery. That fixed the problem, so I electrical taped the ground cable nice and tight. Few minutes later, Sirius is dead again. Same voltage problem. Gave the ground cable a good squezze, and problem is solved again. I guess my question is, how do I get this cable to stay grounded so my satellite radio will work? This is driving me nuts! Thanks everybody.



here was his answer which i would think abvious to anyone


Get a ring connector and run it to the floor and take a self tapping screw and screw it to it



here is what he said to that

You're a genius, tried that today, and so far so good.

So how was his ground attached? taped to the floor?

[smoker]
