Good Day all,

We recently bought a 2015 Rubicon and decided to go with a Stinger Solutions HEIGH10 Stereo. We had it professionally installed by Tint World #066 in Port Charlotte about 12 days ago. Since getting it back we've had it quit working twice. Took it back up and they supposedly fixed it. The first fuse blow out was after 6 days. The second was after 2 days. When it goes out it takes the Inverter and the Hazard lights with it. They also apparently wired something wrong as we have no bluetooth audio for the phone. Matt at Stinger helped me troubleshoot that over emails and he determined Tint World wired it wrong because we have the optional 9 speaker Alpine system with the all weather subwoofer. So it has to go back up to them for that fix regardless. Shane, from TW says he's installed countless Stingers in Jeeps and has never seen one keep blowing fuses. To the best of my knowledge this Jeep's previous owner installed no after market wiring except the underhood cables going to the winch on the bumper. Everything inside appears stock. He did have an aftermarket back up camera but that was the cheesy one you plug into your 12v and suction cup the screen to your windshield. Has anyone had any issued with HEIGH10s blowing fuses and what is the repair solution? Thanks!
 
I don't have that android head unit, but if I were you, I'd get a refund from TW and go somewhere else (if you can't do it yourself). Once is a fluke, twice though?

The Heigh10 is a plug and play unit. Ive installed 1 in a friends Jk. For it to be blowing fuses like this, I'd say there is a hot, 12v + wire, that got nicked somewhere or is not capped off and grounding itself to metal brackets in the dash and causing the fuse to blow. Here's a uTube video on how easy it is to install this radio.
