Car Installations and Repair

Things are becoming expensive day by day and so are the car accessory installments and their repair. Services are becoming costlier to customize our car, so it is time we do it ourselves as it is an easy task.

Car alarm repair:

Car alarms can get annoying at times when it keeps going off accidently when a passerby touches or just walks by it. Blaring auto alarms need repair since they cause a lot of parking scenarios.
All you need to do is to find out what your alarm is particularly triggered by. Generally in most of the cars they are triggered by a small vibration explaining why they go off when a passerby just happens to touch the car. So all you need to do is to recalibrate the vibration trigger to be less sensitive.

Car amplifier installation:

Amplifier helps us boost the stock audio output provided by car stereo and transport them to different channels. Amplifier is a must add-on if one is fond of music, but then who is not.
Amplifier installation is not that hard a process. The following things are required before you start the process: An amplifier (assuming that your car already has a stereo) , a 2m hard insulated copper wire, inline fuse holder, a set of RCA cables,  some speaker wires and wire connectors.

1.  Switch off the car to turn the power off,

2.  Open the bonnet and disconnect the battery connector from the negative terminal.

3.  Attach a hard copper wire having an inline fuse connected to the negative terminal connector.

4.  Take the other end of this wire and slide it through the opening to the car’s cockpit.

5.  Run this wire through the carpet, to underneath the front passenger seat, where the amplifier will be placed. Remember that the amplifier is placed between the speakers and the head unit i.e the stereo.  

6.  This wire is then connected to the ‘GROUND’ input marked on the amplifier. Similarly the wire needs to be connected to the positive terminal of the battery, brought inside to the ‘B+’ input marked on the Amplifier.

7.  Now take a thin blue wire called the remote wire, connect one side to the blue color remote wire with the back of the car stereo and the other side to the ‘REMOTE’ input marked on the amplifier.

8.  The wires from the speakers need to be connected to the amplifier and to the SPEAKER output connectors marked positive and negative.

9.  For the input of the amplifier you need to run 2 RCA wires from the RCA output behind the car stereo to the RCA input in the car amplifier and adjust the frequency settings in the amplifier as desired.
The setup is now complete. Next connect the Battery wires back to its terminals, close the bonnet, turn on the car and switch on the car stereo.  The amplifier should be working and giving you a better, louder and crisper sound.

Car sub-woofer installation:

Requirements :Minimum 4 channel installed amplifier , a sub woofer and a pair of thin insulated copper wires.

1.  Turn off the car and open the boot. Place the sub woofer inside the boot and connect one side of the insulated copper wire to the sub woofer.

2.  Run this wire to the amplifier and connect the other end to the speaker output bridged connection marked positive and negative on the amplifier. Turn on your car security system and test Sub frequencies.

Car accessory installations

There are several accessories for cars in the market. Customizing cars have become a trend today. For some it is to add a personal touch to their car and for others just a show-off. The installation of these accessories comes out to be quite expensive so here are a few self to do car accessory installations listed below:

CAR ALARM INSTALLATION:

Opening a car lock or door has become just too easy for anyone. It is possible by just using a normal ruler. This has led to an increase in a lot of car thefts. So it has become important to install alarms in cars for their safety and security.
Car alarm installation is a very mazy and complicated process which requires specific knowledge about working with wires. The accessories you require are sirens, LEDs, door opening protection, adjustable shock sensors, and output for parking flash lights, tilt sensors, air horns, door sensors, trunk, hood and door pins, and starter disable relays. For installation: Firstly, choose a suitable place where you can place your alarm, dash light, siren, reset switch. Then collect materials like solder gun, test light, knife, double sided mounting tape and voltmeter. Now read the installation manual carefully which comes with the alarm. The important things to be careful about are LED positioning, placement of the alarm module and the wiring. If these three are done correctly your alarm will function properly.

CAR STEREO INSTALLATION:

If the car stereo installation professionals charge you a good deal of money then let me tell you that you can do this job all by yourself. It is not as difficult a task as it seems to be. All you need is wire cutters, wire stripper, electrical tape, screw wire set and a new car stereo.
Once you have these you are ready to install your stereo.
Firstly remove the old stereo and disconnect the ground cable from the battery. Now connect the positive and negative terminal of the battery to the positive and negative terminal of the new stereo respectively. The negative wire should be attached to the metal and should be screwed in the dashboard near the radio. Cabling strap has a connector attached to it and all the wires should be connected to it. Now you can attach the negative cable back to the battery and fix your new stereo.


CAR AUDIO INSTALLATION:

Car audio is an important accessory in the car and car security system for an enjoyable ride since most of the people are fond of music. Installation of the car speakers is not a tough job; all you need is a little knowledge and common sense. First of all you need to decide as to where the speakers will be placed. The distance of both the speakers should be at an equal distance from the centre for good quality of voice. Choosing a location for woofers and amplifiers is comparatively easy. Wiring is another important part of the installation; you need to buy a correct cable according to the capacity of the amplifier and speakers. A final fine tuning which can be done with the help of the professionals and your installation is done.
