I ain't sure dis is the rite forum for this, but read this:

Other solution of course is to leave the engine off, bus way the flooring, and apply some flintstones power :lol:

make sure the rca wires ae separate from the power wires and the mian harness wires for the car
ensure all equipment are properly grounded and typically with multiple amplifiers
grounded to the same pt and the ground is secure and clean
replace / upgrade the ground wire from the battery to the chassis of the vehicle
these are basic checks you need to do
now if the vehicle has racing plug wires and racing plugs you may not be able to get rid of all the engine noise

if that does not help, try re-assessing the RCA connections used in the install (to/from the components) for broken leads, cold solder, etc

no remote wire!! so how u turn on the amp?

roger · Postby **roger** » October 15th, 2004, 1:38 pm

a remote wire is not a problem...if there is not input for a remote turn on, then there is a problem...

This has to be the strangest post in this section of the forum so far. I think that he should really get someone else to take a look at the wiring. That "nice nice" install not sounding so nice anymore.
