Yes. Messing with the RCA's when the HU is on or it has power will cause an internal micro fuse to burn out. At least that's what I hear is the exact internal problem. Also could be a trace on the board burning out.

Damn Pioneer whining got on my nerves, so I went ahead and did it.

Sun went down and didn't have time to install it back so I will tomorrow.

Will edit the results in tomorrow.

Err, is it? I think it's kinda pathetic on Pioneers behalf. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif Good on AJ if he solved his problem with it though.

I kinda wish I would've kept my old pioneer HU to see if that solution would've helped.

Is this all Pioneer models, or just a certain few??

I just did pioneer 6900ub head unit, jbl components, alpine amp all at once, and I can not figure out for the life of me where this engine whine is coming from???

It better not be this brand new deck with about 2 hours of use on it so far.

i did the last 2 to my pioneer 3800 after the wrapping of the RCA's with bare wires didnt work. the seperating of the rca's from the power wire completely eliminated my engine whine

i think it is kinda shitttty on pioneers part. i just had to do that to a new deh 5900 in my girlfriends jeep. it drove me insane trying to figure out where the whine and pop was coming from. i spent a couple of hours moving the grounds and testing with different rca's, then i found this thread. i never had any problems with my alpines and noise. i hope the new avic d3 i bought doesnt have this same problem. if it does im going to take it back and wait for the alpine w205 to come out.

Thanks guys. Im going to check the power vs. RCA right now.... check grounds....
