[QUOTE="hzsogood, post: 2307666, member: 564368"] i've noticed a lot of people having issues with getting sudden alternator noise with their pioneer headunit. if you suddenly get alternator noise, you probably popped the microfuse inside the deck thanks to a poor ground. [B]with a pioneer you MUST ground the chassis of the headunit to the chassis of your vehicle. same with the main ground.[/B] if you don't, you will pop that microfuse that's less than half the size of an eyelash. with this fuse popped the headunit tries to seek a ground through the rca's. this can wear out your speakers a lot faster than they should because of constant flutter. any authorized pioneer benchtech can fix this problem in less than an hour if he can get right to it. just taking a couple extra steps during the install will save a lot of headaches later on. in defense for pioneer, i agree they make a beautiful deck at a great value. i sure do love mine. What other ground is he talking about >? is there 2 or what [/QUOTE]
