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/ |

Sounds to me like the problem is RADIO SHACK.
Get some real wires for signal. Anything from Radio Shack is going to give you problems. I wouldn't use their connectors, their wire even, I wouldn't use their solder or their soldering iron. -It's all built to ruin what you have. Go to a real electronics store and do it right or you'll forever be messing with it. I would use Noble brand insulated crimp connectors and an rca cable that wasn't made in china. |
