[QUOTE="audioholic, post: 8451101, member: 549629"] For starters, do not run power or ground for your H/U from the stock wiring harness. Run a dedicated power wire from the fuse panel to the H/U. Ground the H/U to an appropriate chassis ground. This will eliminate the most common ground loop issues. If this does not correct the problem, start focusing on the ground wiring of your amps. Ground them together (via a distro block is best). Make sure the ground is cleaned of paint/debris, sealed, and in an appropriate location to allow current flow back to the battery via the chassis. If all else fails, use trial and error on ground locations. [/QUOTE]
