I was triing to clean up my center console the other day and moved my booster from inside the console to the outside, passenger side. once I did that I have a very loud and obnoxious buss in my raido. If I plug in and play my I Pod directly into the booster, no noise (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) . I have grounded the raido, booster, even went as far as grounding the sheilds of the RCA cables (and tried different cables) into the booster. That seemed to quiet it up a slight bit but still buzzes when the FM, CD is on.
I then went to raido Shack and picked up a noise supressor (inline capacitor) Still didn't help. I am begining to think Ignition or Alternator? Every thing was fine till I moved the booster from inside to the outside. This happened once before but not as severe, I just moved a few wires around and it went away. Any ideas?? Here is the link I found good for the DIY guy who knows enough to be dangerous. http://www.bcae1.com/ |

Did you change anything on your power source wire or ignition source wire?
Sometimes adding a fuse or cutting and reconnecting the main or ign wire can cause resistance or even going to a longer wire can put a bit more load on the source attachment point and might be putting it close to the max load for the fuse! Also using a fuse or wire on the ground that is smaller than than the source wire can cause a problem! Just throwing it out!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |
