Karkov Posted March 24, 2015 Report Share Posted March 24, 2015 I'm doing it now. I have some really bad engine noise coming through my mid's.

Rodlow1 Posted March 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2015 Yeah I seen the trouble you went through. My second alternator is not pcm controlled. 4 pin oval. 151.0 Sealed http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/196628-2007-escalade-build-my-first-install/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodlow1 Posted March 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 Oh, sorry, the bolt that holds alternator in is where the one ground goes to. Even if you only had stock alt the grounding point would be the same. As you said, it's mounted to engine/frame anyway. Also, i get ZERO alt whine, both systems charge like a boss. I took a cable and touch the negative side of the battery, then the other end to the mounting bolt. The noise went from 10 to maybe a 2 or 3 level on a scale of 1 to 10. But when I attached the wire permanently the noise went back to 10. Worked on it til about midnight. I going to try again after work. Plus I think some of the sound is coming from the rca's. Should have purchased the rockford's. But the company I deal with only had the rfi and not rfit you got. 151.0 Sealed http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/196628-2007-escalade-build-my-first-install/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodlow1 Posted March 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 Update: Im still trying to track this engine noise. I tried new rca jacks and check the ground on the radio. No luck at all. After I get the box in I'm going to redo all the grounds. 151.0 Sealed http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/196628-2007-escalade-build-my-first-install/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
