Just installed a Bluetooth amp to my car, to clean the dashboard with a blank faceplate, I ran a cable direct to my battery but I am getting the amp to shut down protecting maybe because of an overload since it doesn’t get energy from the regulated board I think. Can anyone confirm if my assumption is correct or if my regulator is not regulating correctly.

Thanks.
I updated the photo. And my wires

To all who replied to my questions, I want to thank you all for the support and also I wanted to comment on the Amp.

After I sorted the issues caused by my installation, me, and my car regulator, I finally had a chance to use it, and I highly recommend it.

Power will not bleed your ears, just will sound fine, with enough power for my “low-end” Focal speaker sets, bass works deep and natural. Not as specified 100w X 4 by blaupunkt, but for $110usd I think is good. I also installed a kill switch to turn off the amp If I don’t want to use it, connected to the remote turn on on the amp to my fuse box.

I liked the black-out faceplate from 914rubber, and the simple original look to it. The amp is small enough to fit where my old stereo was, wiring was done with an amp install kit also from blaupunkt I also got as the amp from Amazon, and cable caps, very simple install.
I really have very limited talent, and just liked my end result.

Finally, Just FYI all speaker grills and doors where already broken when I got the car, I just replaced the old rotted speakers with new ones because I wanted to hear my phone tunes. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
