Is there any car/van audio people in here?
I’ve fitted new door speakers, rear speakers and a bass speaker in the Vito. I’m running the 4 speakers off a 4 way amp and the bass speaker off a mono amp.
Very simple setup but I’ve got an issue I can’t seem to figure out.
I’ve made a video for ease of explanation, but I can’t seem to post it here. Basically I’m getting a buzzing through the speakers, even with the HU off. Ignition on, engine off. Doing things like pressing the window switches, indicating, hazard lights all change the pitch of the buzz. I think it’s something to do with how the HU gets it’s power as it’s not the usual 12v red wire.
I also was getting alternator whine with the engine on, but I’ve fixed that with better ground points.
Anyway, any help/ideas very welcome.
Also if anyone knows how I post the video, I’ll do that too.
