Cant hunt down my electrical noise.


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hey guys , after doing a full car stereo including amps , i have hum noise at low volume

im getting a non rpm dependent electrical noise coming through speakers when radio is at very low volumes. the noise does NOT amplifiy if i turn the volume up.

What ive done and tried.

all gound connections wire brushed and ensured a great connection to metal - still there --
0 gauge ground wire from alternator to battery - still there --
0 gauge ground from body to battery - still there --
new agm battery. - still there --
i tried a different radio - still there --
if i connect my portable mp3 player directly to the amp via 3.5mm to rca --noise is gone--
ran a new ground to the radio. -- still there --
even tried running power and ground directly from the battery to the radio . - still there --

new rca's - still there --

im just completly stumped with this one guys.

might be your deck. i had a old pioneer deck that started making a hum noise come to fine out the front rca output went bad.

although, i guess there is a chance both radios are pioneers.

one radio was a pioneer another was a chinese radio i had laying round.

i could try my JVC kd-ahd69 radio and see if anything happens.

i know this radio makes 0 noise , its currently hooked up and used for my computer.

Not sure if the work but I'll try checking to see that there's no power or electrical harness running near your RCA cables

i thought the same thing , no luck . i even un-ran the cables and just had them go directly from the head unit in my hands to over my seats and then to the amp.
