I have a 2023 CFMoto Cforce 800 XC ATV. I wanted to add a sound bar on it so I installed a Exogear Sound Extreme 26' Sound bar. It is installed and connected directly to the battery. So I went riding and it kept powering off on me. It cut off about 20 times and so I started to troubleshoot. I assumed it was a loose connection and noticed the two plugs that you connect the wires from the battery to the sound bar the metal lead was cracked and it even broke off. So I was like cool, easy fix. I will splice the cables and bypass the connectors. That is what I did and I went riding again. Lasted about 20 minutes and it started powering off again. Very frustrating to say the least. So after further troubleshooting i started to notice that anytime I accelerated on the bike it would power the speaker completely off. It didn't happen every time, but say I went riding 20 to 30 times. So now I'm thinking this is some kind of voltage issue where it is giving the speaker too much voltage or not enough. I kind of think it is a power spike and the speaker is cutting off. I'm no electrician and this is the first four wheeler I have ever owned. We are going to try and put a voltmeter on it and see what the results are. Just reaching out to see if anyone has any advice or seen this before?
