revoracing247 Posted October 3, 2012 Report Posted October 3, 2012 hey guys, i have a friend who has a Kicker ZX650.4 amp and in one of the channels it just started giving out a lot of static. or like white noise. it gives off the static even when the car is off, and it's like a steady tone, so it's not like an alt whine or engine noise from a bad ground. the amp is like 6 years old. anyways if anyone has any ideas or anything it's be a big help!! thanks! ~ If it was easy, everybody would be doing it ~

Skullz Posted October 3, 2012 Report Posted October 3, 2012 Don't sound good, i would send it in and have it looked at cause it may need to be repaired providing your still wanting to use it. 01 Ford focus ZX3 Pioneer AVH-X491BHS PPI PC 4800.2 Morel Maximo 6.5" x2
revoracing247 Posted October 3, 2012 Author Report Posted October 3, 2012 yeah i he still want's to use it, i was just wondering if it was maybe something i could do myself cause i do have pretty much all the electronics tools i'd need at me disposal and i really wanna learn more about amps and what not. ~ If it was easy, everybody would be doing it ~
Pioneerchuck Posted October 4, 2012 Report Posted October 4, 2012 If it sounds like interferance it could be a bad ground. Sometimes Ive seen on cars where the amp is grounded to the body i.e. a seat belt bolt, floor, or bare metal body surface, instead of a direct ground to the battery can cause the white noise or interferencce sound.
