[QUOTE="DRBOOM, post: 8665484, member: 676005"] Hey there mate! Thanks for bringing up your issue, The issue is with your head unit poor grounding inside the unit itself. I have had this issue previously with Sony and Pioneer head units. What you need to do is": [LIST][*]take out your current head unit; [*]apply speaker wires around your rear RCA inputs of your head unit, into a figure '8' to all of the RCA Inputs, ( if you have three, do all of them) [*]after you have go the bare copper speaker wires to form a figure 8 shape, apply solder so it holds it shape; [*]Ground all the speaker wires to the rear of your head unit to one point; [*]Reconnect all the RCA with the figure 8 wires and the RCA CABLES will hold them in place; [*]Check your grounding point and distribution connector terminals are all securely tightened on the amplifier and the grounding point as well; [*]Check your head unit grounding point is getting a good contact as well; [*]Hopefully, this should rectify your issue mate! [/LIST] Let us know how you go. [/QUOTE]
