voltage gauge..... interference with sounds (back again!!!!) - Page 3 - Saxperience

alright mate, got the red one going to my remote terminal on the amp, the yellow one just wrapped up, as i thought it was the dimmer wire???

liam_b · 11th October 2007, 09:06

yeah sounds right have you tryed puting it to the + on the amp have you put the wires any where near the relays next to the fuse box does the buzz change when you turn the lights on and off? is it coming from just speakers or is it coming from the speakers and sub are your front speakers amps?

Baynesey · 11th October 2007, 21:28

yea mate tried that today still making the humming, i wired it to the cig lighter, still humming, its doing my head in!!!!

its just coming out the subs not the speakers,

Predator_R32^p · 11th October 2007, 22:07

can only suggest you check all the other wires mate, what gauge wire are you using to wire it all in??

Baynesey · 11th October 2007, 23:29

i dunno what gauge wire it is but its a bit thicker the the stuff coming off the back of the gauge.

bloke in the local ice shop said it didnt matter about the gauge of wire as long as it wasnt thinner.

at one stage i had the noise gone but i had all the wires everywhere, so had to undo it all to get it neat, but put it back excatly the same but the noise came back, im thinking something running from the back of the HU to the amp is being messed around by something then the gauge is on.

give it another shot tomorrow!!!!

Yeah, i would just try routing the wires a different way mate. It is obviously picking up interference somewhere along the line.

liam_b · 12th October 2007, 13:40

haha i got the buzz now i had 2 move some wires about in the car now i got a buzz and pop so its to do with where the wires are i seem to get loads of interference when the wires are near the light relay

wired mine up today so piss easy lol

set mine up so it only powers up with the sidelights on.

whast hte point having it on in daylight since you hardly can see it LOLS.

Brown wire and yellow wire and earthed to a bolt under the carpet..
traced the cables down the side of the dash cant see them at all did not have to drill or unscrew anything

pred need your help again lol,

decided to put it in the cig lighter coz the buzzing has come back how would i go about that???

Predator_R32^p · 26th January 2008, 01:14

lol why me

are the wires all taped up and how did you connect the wires up??

liam_b · 26th January 2008, 01:15

im pretty sure it will still buzz if its in cig lighter move the wires about should stop it

Baynesey · 26th January 2008, 01:26

well in the end i left it all connected to the amp, i just played around with the settings on the amp and it made the noise go away,

but i havent been driving my car, got in it today to start it up, sorting it out to get everything ready for when im back on the road soon, put a cd on, and where ive played around with the amp settings, my subs are hardly noticeable, so had a play with the setting on my radio, no difference, so had a play with the amp, and as soon as i move anthing on there the noise comes back.

so i just ripped the whole lot out and im starting again,

think is if the black wire aint touching a earth the gauge turns off, the further away the earth is to the radio the quieter the buzz is???

im confussed :'(

Predator_R32^p · 26th January 2008, 01:31

did you try earthing it somewere else mate, as the earth you have it on may share it with the radio

Baynesey · 26th January 2008, 01:35

yea i did, it only buzzes through the subs ive found, if i disconnect my subs if works fine,

i read above the liam had trouble when the wires were by the light relay. wheres that???

Predator_R32^p · 26th January 2008, 01:39

hmmmmm not sure if it will be the relays mate, could be a dodgy rca, try pulling them out when everything is on to see if it stops

Baynesey · 26th January 2008, 01:40

rca????? what??? lol....

when i first got it i set it up quick to make sure it worked alright, i just had the wires going over the seats etc and it didnt buzz, ill have another go tomorrow!!!!

Predator_R32^p · 26th January 2008, 01:50

yeah but you may of dmaged one after that

also could be a wire touching it

Baynesey · 26th January 2008, 01:55

ok mate ill have a play tomorrow!

liam_b · 26th January 2008, 01:57

cant remember the hole of this thread but things that stoped the buzz where

:more the wire about and see if that changes the sound reroute the wires
:swap pre-out
:change earthing point
:earth headunit to where the amp/s are earthed

thats all i can remember off the top of my head think there are one or two other ways il post up when i remember good luck mate
