Mine has 2 white(ground) wires. One terminates at the plug the other with a round connector. Do I need to hook the round connector to a screw?

The round ring terminal can be connected to a ground screw behind the drivers kick panel.

i have the same failure... check the ground wire... in my case... it was loose... it needs a good conection of wires...

Mine came with a long screw to replace the screw on the outlet cover so that this item can't get accidentally pulled out of the outlet. I'm sure you can just plug it in and use it if the screw is missing.

I think that by code, it is required to be grounded in a new installation. There may be an exception when installed into existing wiring, depending upon your local regulation. This unit does require a neutral (white usually) wire in the box. Many times the missing neutral is the problem...not the missing ground. It may be possible to ground it to the box.

If it does not have a socket, then it should have a two wire connector that plugs together. If not, you might need to cut of the connector and just wire not the conductor together. If you are not experienced, you shod hire an electrician.

The black wire should be the ground wire. I believe it should of had a round "ring" end, I'm guessing it got left off at the factory by accident.

They are just different ways of connecting, one by screw block and one from a power adapter plug. It depends on what you are going to power it from. The negative screw block terminal is very useful as well to connect the grounds of the source signals and the power adapter so you have a common ground.

I'm guessing the plug in your connector is round, this one is oval with 8 holes connection. If oval and connection work, I don't see, why not Word of caution! if you don't unplug from battery when charging it will burn out circuit board. Mine did!! sorry couldn't be more help! charging

I did strip down to copper wire, twisted, then put on wire nut/connector. If the copper does not meet and contact with the inside of the connector, connectivity does not happen.

My item 95836 has two wires from the socket and a plastic coupling to connect to the low voltage line. My low voltage lines are 14 and 16 gauge but they only 2 wire each. Are you using a different source cable that has a ground wire ??

Screw terminals are used, just use regular audio wire, then get a banana plug wall outlet

My unit has 2 screws that you wrap the 2 wires of the low voltage cable around, then tighten. Similar to wiring an outlet or light switch

Not sure. 24 is pretty small. I ran my STRIPPED wires down the barrel and out the side before twisting tight and had no problem. The stupid question is of course, "Were the wires stripped of insulation?". Other than that, maybe your skinny wires are slipping to some part of the plug that is not part of the conductive system. If all else is good maybe try folding back the stripped part of the wire upon which the "screw" impinges back on itself to make it thicker.

This plug has 2 female ports for rca. So you probably need this a wire with two male connector instead.

Hey Angry... They connect to one another with the goofy and cumbersome round plug that is built in. It works fine as long as you don't mind looking at the big, goofy connector. Hope this helps.

The end of the wires are a bare connection. You would use a connector to wire it to a 12V fuse protected circuit.

there are only two wires a red and white. on the one i bought, you cut the wire from the ac adapter and strip the ends.i touch each end to your battery post .if they dont light switch them and you will find which is ground. you can also cut them to any length and solder wires to the ones you cut.its a little work but not hard
