[. . . ] If the noise is a "whine" whose pitch follows the engine speed, confirm that the amplifier and any other signal sources (head unit, etc. ) are properly grounded. If the noise is a "clicking" or "popping" noise whose rate follows the engine speed, this usually means that the vehicle is equipped with resistor spark plugs and wires, or that the ignition is in need of service. Check the rounting of the speaker and input wires to make sure they are not adjacent to wires which interconnect lights and other accessories. If the above steps fail to improve or clear noise interference, the system should be checked by a professional mobile audio installer. precautions Do not operate the amplifier when it is unmounted.
