I didn't have the money to spend on the mini batt at the time so I moved to trunk, alreadyhad the wires running to back bc of my amp already back there. And its installed correctly just might have to check ground again and see if the location is just in a bad place.

Hahaha yeah! Now what kind of fuse is that? Can I just get one up at a auto parts store or is it a dealer part?

the charging system has 3 fuses, a 100 amp fuseable link that is connected to the positive battery cable, fuse #12 in the black box under the hood, and fuse #2 in the fuse box inside the car under the dash.
