[QUOTE="Mooncatt, post: 8674050, member: 676968"] Did this problem happen right after you installed the new head unit? If so, I'd start with checking the wiring behind it. I haven't used Crutchfeild's ready harness service, but their images look as if they are a permanent connection. That's going to ****, because ideally you'd want to disconnect individual speaker wires to see if you can isolate the problem and go from there. If you can't get the problem to change just by wiggling wires around, you could either cut wires at the harness and re-splice after, or go to the speakers themselves to disconnect them (which may or may not help, depending on where the problem lies). I suspect you have either a loose connection, or exposed wire contacting another wire or ground causing the static. Does this problem still happen if you have faded completely to the rear, or only if you play front and rear together? [/QUOTE]
