Alternator Whine issue *figured out* UPDATE pg.11


Recommended Posts

My friend let me borrow his little 2ch amp today to test out. I installed it the exact same way I did the S800.4 and I had no noise at all. It must be the amp. Everything was the same between the two amps and one had noise while the other did not. Thank you everyone for your help with this. I also took pictures of the wiring just incase you still wanted to see that.

Im still figuring out where to mount the fuses so the leads going to the amps are not in this picture

Doesn't make sense that it would be the amp. If you used your i pod as a source and you did not have noise, then it has to be something in the signal, either your headunit or your RCAs

Thats what I thought too. Side Show suggesting using both inputs when I used the ipod instead of just one set and when I did the noise came back.

Glad it's figured out. I think Karkov had the same issue with his. Something about that amp.

Yeah I messaged him a while back and he said he was having the exact same problem. Im sending it in to get repaired but if it comes back with the same problem then I guess Ill just have to take a loss

Everything is wired up in the back and I found a place for the fuses. When I turned everything on there was no noise from the amp except in channel 2. Did not change with the rpms just a constant noise/static. Just waiting for DroppinHz to email me back once Cody is done with the move.

Crescendo emailed me today and I'm sending the amp in on Monday to have it looked at and fixed. Channel 2 on the amp is where I am getting all of my noise from. As soon as I disconnect the speaker that is in Channel 2 the noise stops.

Yeah there seem to be multiple people having the same issue with the amp. I sent the amp into Crescendo but still haven't heard anything from them. Hopefully I will soon. Hope you figure out your issue man.
