lgn0213 Posted December 2, 2007 Report Share Posted December 2, 2007 So i was fixing all the wiring going to my amp making it cleaner and when i turn on the car it sounded like i was "burping" with the sub...but i had no music on??? the stereo was on but no music. then I stopped that and whenever i turn anything electrical like lights, windows, or heater it makes this "Thump" noise and a small "burp" noise the whole time the car is on? What causes those noises? would that be because I ran my REM with my RCA cables together? and my Positive is on the other side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lgn0213 Posted December 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2007 yea i think I'm going to rewire most of it because I disconnected everything from my amp and connected it agian same problem but when everything except the RCA cables is connected it didn't make any of the noises and i check the back of the stereo that they were connected right and the REMOTE.
