lockdown801 Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 Rodlow1 I have the same exact problem. When it's not in drive it's not as bad on mine because I am using some isolators. But in drive it gets louder. I think because you are putting a load on the engine/alts it causes the louder results. I don't have any noise when it's just in the ACC mode but as soon as I turn it over then I get a milder version of the same awful noise. I am trying to talk to the owner of the SKAR audio Escalade to see if they have the same issues. I want to keep this going to see if we can fix it and help others in the future. I wouldn't pull everything. I really believe it is alt related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockdown801 Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 I am not sure if I missed it but are you running 2 electrical systems? 1 factory and 1 for the stereo or are they all together? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodlow1 Posted April 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 Update: Still when on parts to come in. Everything is removed from my truck. Also I found out my air suspension compressor is bad. The dealership wants over 1000 dollars to just replace compressor. Sucks!! But hopefully everything will be up and running the by weekend. 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...
islandpride684 Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 Damn, have you thought about replacing it yourself? The part is only about 200 bones...

Rodlow1 Posted April 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 Damn, have you thought about replacing it yourself? The part is only about 200 bones...I got a local mechanical who is going to put it in for the low. And I bought the whole assembly from eBay for 223 for the win! 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 April 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 I would have never notice it if I had put my box in. My shocks don't leak and there was no code on the dash. Probably been bad for a while. 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...
rockFord_Expedition Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 OP, are you still experiencing alt whine? I skimmed through the posts but I may have missed something so if I did, I apologize. What HU are you using, and besides your HU and Amps, are you using any sort of processor or EQ?

What HU are you using, and besides your HU and Amps, are you using any sort of processor or EQ? I have the alpine ine-z928hd but I tried replacing the head unit, rca's, highs amp no luck. No processor or eq. It have to be a grounding problem. Im going separate my positive and negative runs. And move all grounds to one side. Besides the front because I have ground both batteries. Thanks for the interest!
