And they were cleaning a car for a dealer, had to rip out all the old stereo wire in it and they bypasses the fuse with a bolt. Stupid stuff like that can leave your car up in smoke
Yep, not too long ago a guy was having trouble with his system. He wanted me to diagnose the problem and fix it. So I started looking around and found that he had the power wire to the battery not fused at all...straight from the battery to amp. I immediately stopped and told him unless he would pay for the parts (labor was going to be free) and let me fuse the wire, that I was not going to be able to touch his car. He didn't want to spend the money ($10), so I sent him packing. All it takes is someone messing with the car and then the car blowing up to end up in a lawsuit.
