Okay members, need some help!
Got my amps wired and installed under helm. I have the Kicker upgrades with LED lighting in them with a Kicker head unit.
Power wires running directly to amps from battery. Everything is proper size, maybe oversized.
Problem I have:
Sitting still without motor running stereo sounds amazing.
Crank motor, speakers whine. As throttle increases, so does whine.
Sitting still without motor running and turn on LED lights, whining in speakers.
So, I think I have a ground loop problem. I've taken the head unit ground off of the main wiring harness and grounded to the distribution block that supplies ground to amps from battery. Same problem.
Anything else to try before I just abandon and go back to factory?
