Whining noise

[Emanuel Rodriguez]

Hello Guys,
Over the last couple of weeks there has been a small whining noise coming from my door speakers all the time. The whining noise has been getting louder over these past few weeks. Whenever I step on the gas whenever I’m driving the whining noise will get louder. At first I thought it was my power steering but it turns out it was my speakers all along. Any ideas on what it could be?

Do you have a system with amps? Start with checking your ground connections.

Yes I do. I’ll check when I get home

Are the door speakers connected to a amp ?

If so it could be an grounding issue

Generally that's a ground loop. Double check grounds.

If it's not the grounds, check the RCA cables are plugged in right. Had one of my cables come out a little behind the deck as there was so little room back there. It was the last thing I checked as it required removing so many panels in that vehicle.

It's coming from the radio. The antenna area. Probably a loose cable maybe at the antenna area where you secure the cable and leading to the car radio. Something is loose there. Whining noise. I think it's the antenna.

I still have that same problem. It is intermittent, so It was hard to trace. I checked all my grounds, speaker leads, and even rewired my entire system. Then it dawned on my that it would only happen when my wife was in the car. I found out by asking her to step outside as soon as I heard it. when she did, the annoying sound went away. So, it turns out it was my wife's nagging. I'm afraid there's not fix for that.
