[QUOTE="t_nguyen206, post: 6693903, member: 619718"] I just installed a Rockford P3 in my car last week. In the last couple of days I've been noticing a huge distortion coming from my subs when my engine is running. If I just put in my key and listen to music [B]without[/B] turning on the engine, the sub-woofer works perfectly. As soon as I turn on the engine, all I can hear is distortion and weird bass from my sub-woofers Distortion keeps going until I turn off engine I'm using 4 gauge wires. The wires don't fit under the door panel so I wired the power cable from my hood firewall to behind my head-unit and from there under the center armrest straight to the trunk. And I ran the smaller RCA and power cables along the door panels because they were small enough to fit. The subs have been installed for about 6 days, but the distortion noises just started 3 days ago. Does anyone know with what I have wrong here? thanks:confused: [/QUOTE]
