RXX Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Do I start at the very beginning of the stuff, or do I have to filter each component separately? The buzz from any and all of my electronics is annoying. Any electronic help will be appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a general point, one should start by filtering at the noise source. After that is done you then start to examine the other side where the noise is being received.

I assume you mean the ground loop hum you hear from your mp3 player, radar detector, or gps being plugged in to the bikes 12v power? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume you mean the ground loop hum you hear from your mp3 player, radar detector, or gps being plugged in to the bikes 12v power? Yes. It has been noticeable from the get go, I got a filter from autocom and it didn't seem to help much. I TRIED to keep wires from sources of interference, but maybe I did not do a great job. I may try a filter going into my new fuse block, but am unsure what kind of filter to get. I have radar detector, satellite radio, MP3 player and phone all hooked into the autocom. When they are all unplugged, the noise is still there, so am I correct in assuming it is in the autocom itself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porterb123 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Radio Shack used to sell a filter to wire into the power supply. I had engine electrical whine coming thru my radio in my Buick Skylark. The filter worked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
