Tub Asko Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 I got off of work after working a 13 hr shift. Get out to my truck and open my door and an extremely high pitched noise is coming from my system. The key is not in the ignition and nothing is on yet there is a noise. At this point I am freaking out. So I get my tools out and start disconnecting stuff. The big amp, then when I disconnect the cap from power (or ground? not sure, was dark) the noise faded away. What could of caused this and this is the first time it's happened. Quote Facebook Youtube Murdered '07 Silverado Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulO2288 Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 Caps are really weird sometimes, they do some crazy stuff on occasions... Agree, We were in my buddies car one time and we are looking at his system and it just turned on for no reason and started to blink and then turned off 5 seconds later. I was like ummmm wow. We dident even touch anything, Thought it was an omen or something. Does the cap help your system at all? and what farad is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFB Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 maybe something was draining your battery while you were working all day and the light coming on when you opened your door made it drop enough to beep / whine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
