Issue with muffler and radio

[HoNdaInspire01]

Whenever I go shopping and turning on my radio for some reason my car make werid noise like it have turbo sound while I press the gas pedal? I dont know If I put this in the wrong section?

It's alternator whine. Happens if you have a bad ground. What is your set up, stereo wise?

Recently my radio got stolen but Im rocking with some no-name brand radio which it suck, no setting bass or fade.... Well all the wiring connected by my dad... I haven't look behind the radio so far...

Yeah, it sounds like a grounding issue. See if you can make a new ground. Maybe when whoever stole your stereo, they may of pulled some wires loose from the stock harness.

Does the radio memory work, like keep radio stations, time, etc?

My radio memory doesn't work or might be unplugged, everytime I start the car & turn the radio on the cd play number one track everytime & makes me crazy... Im going to check the radio if it has any issue I could find.. its to dark to check it out maybe later. thank you!

Yeah, it sounds like a ground issue. Just find a screw behind where the stereo goes, if it's got a painted surface, scrape the paint off, that way it'll be grounded to bare metal.

Good luck!

yep ground issue! Had this problem a few years back and it gets annoying!

I think this thread was answered on the second post. Whining noise increasing as RPMs increase... classic alternator whine issue.

So ya have your Dad make sure your HU is well grounded and have him check the battery ground while he's at it, after all it's his fault!

i'd probably lean towards ground wire crossing across other wires, happened to my buddies car.

Ground directly from the chassis of the head unit to the battery with a slightly larger wire. That's what I did and it works great

[EXCHEF2112]

a good insulated ground wire will work.

I have the same problem... Can someone tell me exactly where the body ground is because I checkD the ground behind the head unit and its good..

The chassis ground (body ground) is under the hood. It should be up near your headlight/rad support. It's the ground cable (-) that comes off your battery and goes directly to the chassis.

Check all of your ground cables (-) and make sure they are free of corrosion and tight.
