BrandonT94 Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 OK, I know this will sound strange but I just built a box for my radio in my car so I would not have to take apart the dash. The only problem is when I hook an amp to my speakers and my car is running, they make a really high pitch buzzing sound. When I give my car gas the buzzing gets louder. I can still hear my music but there is still the buzz. Could the RCA jacks in the radio be bad? I've changed my cables with 3 different ones and they all do the same thing. This makes no sense to me. I had the radio hooked up the exact way in my brothers car and there was no problem. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLAYER1805 Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 My deck did the same thing, its a grounding issue somewhere, for mine all I did was ground the RCAs into the radio grounds, I did this a few years back and I haven't had any problems with this solution, I'm not sure if its recommended but it worked for me.

That1Kid Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 Sounds like alternator whine since it gets louder when you give it gas. Check all your grounds.

BrandonT94 Posted October 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 no it is a kenwood. The only thing i found to do is ground the rca jacks at the headunit should i do this or ground the cables elsewhere the radio is on its own ground so im pretty sure it isn't the radio. could my amp ground cause this too? should i try to ground the RCAs at the headunit first?
