Volts needle???

[S.C.L.A.98COBRA]

I recently put in a sound system in the Snake along with a 130 amp altenator and a yellow optima battery. The thing is that now my guage, the volt's needle, when the car is off it doesn't sit down completly, like it still has some current running through it. It sits a little above the line that marks when the car is off. What could be the problem...

Thanks

i wouldnt worry about it. the guage cannot read if there is current going through unless the key is on. you might want to invest in an autometer guage just to be sure.

Before you go spend money needlessly, take an amp meter and check if there is any current in the circuit when the key is off.
