LoudNLow931 Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 (edited) Couple days ago I wired everything together to make sure everything works before I finished trimming everything off, Figured out the max headunit volume and gain etc. Then started to play the system and let it go for about 20mins, I then turned my RCA Level controller all the way down and noticed my subs where "rumbling" I guess is how you could explain it so I shut my truck off and they kinda quietly went "thump" I had a problem with it doing this before I did my rebuild but sense then I have ALL New RCAS,RCA Level controller,A brand new DC5k,Brand new LVL5s etc, Everything is new except for the headunit. So I figured the problem must be the radio because that is the only thing that is not new and i was having this problem before, I ordered a new one which should be here in a few days so i will see if that fixes my problem, But It could also be my Remote? but that wouldn't cause the "Rumble" As for how everything is wired. I have the big 3 up front, 1 Run of power off the ALT to the back batteries and 1 run from the front battery to the back, then 2 runs of ground from the front batter to the backs, Then the 5k is hooked directly right up to the batteries in the back. The remote wire goes into the 5k then I have another that goes from the 5k to the 4 channel. All my RCAs are ran on one side of the truck and the 0gauge and remote is ran on the other side if that matters. Thanks.

LoudNLow931 Posted November 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 (edited) Have you grounded the rca outputs? No I haven't, I did read though that pioneers have that problem. I'm hoping the new one(Well its a refurb like mine, I dont like the new pioneers) will fix this lol. If not I will try grounding the outputs.

SkylarDunn Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 I had the same problem with an avalanche, problem turned out to be the balasts for the HIDs, But your problem sounds like its most likely a ground loop issue.
