Having some minor electrical issues... Please Help Me!!!

So I installed two Alpine S series 10 inch subwoofers along with a 1000watt Boss amp to my 2001 cl-s.


Literally an hour after finishing the project, I was cruising around with a friend listening to the new bass and out of no where my dash lights, clock, power locks, and my running lights (head&tail) went out... I checked the ground wire in my trunk from the amp and it seems well grounded. My fuses are all good as well as my bulbs. So I'm guessing its a multiplex problem? I'm not sure...

This wasn't my first time hooking up a car with some subwoofers, but my first time with an Acura. I'm not sure where I went wrong. Does anyone have some helpful advice for me?

did you check the fuses with a test light or probe, or did you just look at them because sometimes they look fine but can have a break that is impossible to see with the bare

Not your first time hooking a car p with sub woofers. I cannot express how many times I have fixed installs done by people who have "installed systems before". Have it done by a pro and it will be fixed.
