dohc v6 Posted January 23, 2008 Report Posted January 23, 2008 Ok guys, again I have another problem. When I was playing with my wiring yesterday, when i turned the radio on I had no screen and the front pass speaker was making a whingin, getting worse with RPM. So I reset the radio and that fixed that. But the front speaker still wines. Did I blow the speaker or something? Quote
slick Posted January 23, 2008 Report Posted January 23, 2008 No, it's engine noise. Re-run the speaker lead, or shield it from the power cable. Quote
dohc v6 Posted January 23, 2008 Author Report Posted January 23, 2008 This just happened, it has never done this. Quote
dohc v6 Posted January 23, 2008 Author Report Posted January 23, 2008 I will check the wiring in the back of the car where the amp is, thats right next to the battery, amybe one of the wires are close to the battery. Quote
GP1138 Posted January 23, 2008 Report Posted January 23, 2008 I will check the wiring in the back of the car where the amp is, thats right next to the battery, amybe one of the wires are close to the battery. From the pictures you posted in your other thread, with all of those wires hanging down right behind the battery, I find it hard to believe that there isn't one close to the battery. Quote
dohc v6 Posted January 23, 2008 Author Report Posted January 23, 2008 hahah, true, but this happened when i was playing with the AUX post yesterday. but I am sure a wire could have scooted over that way. I will check. Quote
dohc v6 Posted January 24, 2008 Author Report Posted January 24, 2008 Haha, something is fucked. The stereo is not loud at all now. and I still get the whine in the speaker but it does not go up with the rpm anymore. Maybe a wire loose on the amp? Quote
GP1138 Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 Maybe a wire loose on the amp? Why don't you go wiggle the wires? It seems silly to me to ask about loose wiring, when you could easily rule that out yourself. Quote
dohc v6 Posted January 24, 2008 Author Report Posted January 24, 2008 True, I gotta get my post # up to yours,lol Quote
GP1138 Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 True, I gotta get my post # up to yours,lol WTF? Quote
dohc v6 Posted January 24, 2008 Author Report Posted January 24, 2008 I found 3 loose wires on the amp, I think that fixed it, but hey I just added another one to my post count,hahha Quote
dohc v6 Posted January 25, 2008 Author Report Posted January 25, 2008 Haha, this car is just so much fun. Well that did not fix it as usual. This happend when i was playing with the AUX battery post so I dont know what that does, but it messed up my radio. When I turn the volume all the way up the amp cuts out and the speakers are totally crackly, they sound like junk. Any ideas? Quote
dohc v6 Posted January 25, 2008 Author Report Posted January 25, 2008 hah, i love fixing my own problems, yet this was a hard one. I took the ground and moved it and it works perfect. Hopefully when i drive away it still works. Quote
dohc v6 Posted January 25, 2008 Author Report Posted January 25, 2008 Slick, how do I shield the wires. The ground works now, I think that the 00 power wire is transfering right across the rca wire for my radio. Quote
slick Posted January 25, 2008 Report Posted January 25, 2008 They make aluminum backed taped, you can wrap it in that. What brand of HU do you have? Are these speakers amplified, or running off of the deck? Quote
dohc v6 Posted January 26, 2008 Author Report Posted January 26, 2008 Its a kenwood exelon x890. I am running kicker components in the front and kicker coaxial in th back, all running on a kicker amp Quote
dohc v6 Posted January 26, 2008 Author Report Posted January 26, 2008 Also another thing, sometimes the radio wont be as loud. It will still play music but not lound, and then it will have like a spike of power. Maybe causing both issues. Quote
slick Posted January 26, 2008 Report Posted January 26, 2008 Sounds like an amplifier issue to me. Quote
