Getting speaker buzz from the alternator whine in my 99 Adventurer. It has an aftermarket stereo I put in to replace the other aftermarket that was there.
Already tried running a new ground wire and still does it.
One source was the audio line from TV to stereo. I got a ground loop isolator to kill that extremely loud buzz and the isolator works well.
However, there is still a constant buzz on speakers even with the stereo off. And it increases with engine RPM...obviously from alternator spinning faster.
Was thinking about replacing speaker lines cause the factory ones (that are the same large gauge wires used all over the RV) go into the harness and all and no telling where they are all running. Think the noise is being induced on the speaker lines directly and so thinking new speaker lines running more direct to the stereo away from the engine might help...
Anyone else dealt with the buzz and found the definitive cause?
