| Senior Member | Hey i was just installing my sound system...and unfortunately some wires got crossed *SPARK* i paid no attention to it and my system worked fine...however when i was done and i tried to start the car it wouldnt turn over...however the system worked lol...neway i checked the fuses and theyre fine...i changed the battery and now the car starts just fine (note i unhooked the system at this point)...are there any other concerns i should have? Note my car is turboed and i have a vtec controller and a turbo timer and all that wonderful electronic gadgetry Note the wires were run b4 i got the car im pretty sure the power cable runs directly to the battery PS also should i change my alternator to accomodate the neons and hte system? Im sorta new to the whole electronic area im used to v8 fords I kno these r sorta stupid questions but could someone help me out Thanx

Rep Power: 40 | you NEED to replace your caliper, and now since you've let it go on so long (not your fault), you'll more than likely need to replace pads and rotor's for the same wheel as the caliper because they have been exposed to EXTREME heat and are probably warped and or glazed. its a fairly easy job. good luck.! |

Rep Power: 391 | If you sprayed it with water, you probably only made it worse... that'll definitely warp the hell out of your rotor. Replace both the rotor and the caliper, and replace the pads on both sides of the rear end. |
