Capacitor Problems...?
Hey all, looking for some help with my carputer having problems booting when connected with my stereo as well. I have a 2002 Ford Explorer, in which I'm running a M2-ATX powering a M10000, and a 3 Farad capacitor running an Audiobahn 2400 W amplifier. When the computer is connected without the stereo, everything is fine...it'll run stable for days on end. However, when the capacitor and amp are connected, the computer will flicker about 5 times or so, and occasionally boot, but when it boots, it'll only work for a maximum of two minutes before restarting and flickering again.
I have 0 gauge running thoughout, except I have 12 gauge to and from the computer. Power is running to a distribution block where the power lines split. However, I have the ground for the computer tied with the ground of the capacitor, due to lack of multiple grounding spots. Could a different ground help this situation at all? Any help would be greatly appreciated, and if more information is needed, just state so and I'll gladly give up what you need.
