That subject line was tough to condense... Here's the issue. With my radio off on my '99 Aspencade, I get 1-3/4 volts on the plus wire of the speaker. This is true in all four speakers. Any idea on why and or how to elimintate. I suspect the answer is get the radio fixed, but I'm not parting with it, so if that's the only option, I guess I'm done for.
The problem that this causes is this: I have installed an EC amp with a LVT. Because the speakers have 1-3/4 volt to them even in the radio off position, the LVT detects that and turns on the amp, with the amp now on and the radio off, I can hear a noise from the speakers. Not loud, and not variable like alternator whine... more like an amplied noise of say, 1-3/4 volts. When I turn the radio on, mostly the music drowns it out.
The amp came with an inline "powerline noise suppressor".. I have a message into EC asking the same thing, but I was wondering, would putting two of these in series help eliminate the noise I hear when riding with the radio off.
Any thoughts are appreciated.
