ok heres the deal
i have a 2000 with the monsoon system and just installed a new head unit.....couple of problems
first some info. the head unit is a pyle pldvd180....in dash player that plays dvds and mp3 cds.....i have a seperate video monitor i mounted above the emergency brake area.
Problem 1: HORRIBLE ENGINE NOISE :(
Its so bad that the video signal is scrambeled on the video screen, but when the car is off its fine. What do i need? Its bad on the speakers too. For the speakers i just need an in line noise filter right? What about for the rca video cable? i have no clue :S
Problem 2: Probably related to problem 1....the head unit has a built in amp, but i want to run my speakers off the monsoon amp. Anyway i got a metra wiring kit, hooked it all up. When u power it up, popping to all 4 speakers, then they keep popping and buzzing, but they play audio fine. When i turn the head unit built in amp off, they dont pop but also have no sound at all. Any ideas?
Problem 3: I have a pac swi-x so i can keep my steering wheel controls. Which wire in the stock wiring do i splice into? There was that whole additional small black connector with 3/4 wires or so in it that didnt connect to my wiring kit, is it one of those wires?
Thanks in advance........really need some help guys.
