kmalinich Posted September 17, 2010 Report Posted September 17, 2010 Ground loop. Try grounding the RCAs on the HU to the chassis ground (just use a screw on the HU) I think there's a picture of it done somewhere on here Quote
knowledge Posted September 18, 2010 Report Posted September 18, 2010 how bout if it was a kenwood? Quote REFF'SMy linkEBAYhttp://feedback.ebay...ck&myworld=trueI love car audio so much because I will never be done. I can never win, and I will never get it finished or perfect. It always has me coming back for more, I can never get my fill of it, but I get what I need.
rubbernutz1 Posted September 18, 2010 Report Posted September 18, 2010 pioneers are notorious for having ground loops. try grounding the rca's like said before. it that dont work then you may have a bad ground some whee else. Quote

I wasnt sure if it was the HU but is there a common problem with kenwood HU's?
