I finally decided to try and tackle this... every time I take the keys out of my ignition, I hear a high-pitched feedback sound coming through my speakers. I've traced the problem back to the amp ( I think). I don't know if its a wiring issue or an amp issue. My car audio system is a 4-channel Alpine amp, a Pioneer HU, and a Clarion EQ. All three share a common ignition, separate grounds, and the HU and EQ share a power lead.
I also have several accessories I've hooked up in my car- I've hard-wired an inverter to my dash, I have a 12V outlet in my truck, and wired fog-lights off my trunk lid so I can see when hooking up my camper/trailer/etc. At first I thought the ignition lead was the same for all of these (including the stereo), but they're not. I have no clue what could be causing this sound through my speakers! Thoughts? -------------------- Music Teacher/Geek for life!! |

Try adding an upgraded 4g at the battery, and on the amp ground did you remove the paint to get a good ground?

Anyway to tie all the grounds to one point instead? Not that the description of the sound indicates a direct relation to a grounding issue, but I've always gone with a central ground point (when possible) as the best practice.
Concerning the sound in question, does it remain steady state or does it gradually die away? -------------------- To Helena Handbasket! |

Concerning the sound in question, does it remain steady state or does it gradually die away? I should have mentioned that- it happens about 2 seconds after I turn the car off, and it lasts only a second. I'm thinking of rewiring everything with fresh thicker wires for the hell of it, and seeing if that works. I'm running a 8g wire for my amp, but it's not a huge amp and I've never had problems with it... -------------------- Music Teacher/Geek for life!! |

I don't know why or how, but this issue has gone away... I traded a Craftsman mower I brought back to life for an 8" amplified Bazooka tube. After hooking up the tube, I noticed the sound was gone.
When hooking up the sub, I sanded down the grounding point for my 4-channel amp, and ground the sub to the same point. Maybe that helped. Somehow, it all works...! -------------------- Music Teacher/Geek for life!! |
