i had a new vibe vp4 amp installed yesterday.
after it was installed i tried to start my car up and when i turned the ignition it wudnt start so i tried again and it still didnt start. on the final attempt it started.
about an hour later i was gonna go to the supermarket and when i got out of my house to start the car up the same thing happened again but this time it didnt start at all. i kept tryin and tryin for about ten minutes and it wasnt workin. i thought it mite have been my alarm coz i got a toad ai606 alarm and thought it mite have immobolised the car but the car isnt still starting
do u think the amp has drained all the battery power but if this was the case then the alarm wudnt hav been workin but the alarm was workin or does the toad ai606 alarm have a separate battery backup???

you say it wont start, but does the engine turn over, or does nothing happen at all
