Car speakers make noise when I turn deck off?

[ForceEdge 10+ year member]

I have a kenwood excelon x596 and its hooked up to an alpine pdx f4 which is powering 4 alpine type Rs. I re wired the entire car. The noise goes away when I turn the deck on, but when I turn it off I get like a ringing noise. What could it be?

Sounds like that could be a bad rca issue/pinched rca?Possible.Its happened to me before with a fold down seat,bad amp ground maybe..Guy in another thread has an issue too with these two possibilities.Check all connections..sounds like pinched rca,if so, needs to be replaced

Check ground wire to the amp. And is there anything between the HU and amp in the signal path?

Figured it out myself guys! Wasn't anything mentioned But thanks for the help anyway.

What was happening was I didn't have the amp hooked to a remote turn on from the deck. It turned on from starting the car and turned off when i shut the car.

So basically if I turned the radio off the amp was still on so I'm guessing that caused some kind of problem. It's all fixed now though. Amp now only turns on when deck is on =)
