Hey guys,
I just finished installing my new 6 channel amp but now have alternator noise. I've already redone my ground on the amp moving it to a different location even and that didn't fix it. I also bought a couple Ground Loop Isolators and those didn't fix it either so I returned them. Any other ideas on what to do? Only other thing I can think of would be to replace my alt with a bigger one? The amp is a JBL GTO 755.6 II. Thanks! -------------------- |

Ok, that's a lot of stuff Davey. I have my head unit hooked up that I did about a year ago and it has the ground that connects to the stereo's wiring harness. And then I just ran the RCA cables from my head unit to my amp along with the signal wire. Then there's a ground coming out of the amp and grounding to another part of the car.
So you're saying the ground for my head unit and amp should be connected? -------------------- |
