Weird POPing noise
there is a weird popping noise in my stereo... but it only does it... ( and the pop frequency accelerates directly proportionally to the rpm's... i suspect maybe a grounding problem... but there are no other symptoms... unless my antenna is grounding to the frame somewhere... i think... possible?)
under these conditions... when my car is running above 2000 RPM and the RADIO is on which means: it doesnt do it at idle, or with the car off... and it doesnt do it when i have a CD in... sounds like a lifter tick... but in my radio... no sh*T

Re: Weird POPing noise
Sounds like some sort of electromagnetic interference coming from somewhere that is being picked up by the radio.

Re: Weird POPing noise
out of curiosity, are you using cheap sparkplug wires on your car?

Re: Weird POPing noise
Could have something to do with how you have your wiring for the system run.
I have an amp and sub in the back and ran the power to the amp down one side of the car and the remote/input/output to the radio down the other side. I was told running it that way helped deter interference like you may be describing. |
