- how to ground your rca's and make the buzzing from your stereo stop! DISCLAMER this is not a 100% fix
stereo, radio, motor noise, engine noise, buzzing, popping, wining STOP FIX
I tried this, and it really works. I had the same issue with my subwoofers. thanks man
Can't believed that worked I have nothing connected to the RCA and this simple technique worked....clean sound! Thanks Dude!
I was hooking up a speaker with the radio on. Positive grounded to body. Not good. Terrible noises after that when ignition on or car running . Replaced 4 channel amp. Same problems. Tried different rca cables still no good. Re did my grounds. No help. This video fixed my problems. And saved my exeleron DVD player. Thank you for your input. 🙂
Thank you, I've been chasing the motor noise for so long and that was the fix all along.
OMG!!!!!! Thank you so much. You saved me 800 dollars. It took buzzing sound completely OFF. People, do it i swear to God. It works 100%%
The advice seems logical but it would have been really good to have seen and heard the fix in action
It works awesome
It works!!!!!! I wrap the wire the same way he did. It does take away that annoying sound.
@@anejo33 can you connect rca cables in all of those contacts after this?
@@adrian506 yes you can, it goes around the bottom of the connection. You wil have no issues connecting the rca cables.
@@anejo33 lovely, thanks!!
I have been trying to fix this whine for over a year now and I try this stupid trick today and it fuckin works. I’m excited, but pissed at the same time. Thanks dude.
I’ve been trying to tackle this problem for so long and this was the solution thanks man.
I just used this technique with success. I had a horrible whine feedback from the engine. My head unit had 3 outputs for front, rear, and subwoofer. I am using the rear and subwoofer outputs and just grounded the 'front' output and now I have absolutely no feedback. Thanks for the video.
What headunit are you using?
Wow... I'm getting troubleshooting tips from a guy wearing a dog collar.
Mark Martin I was like is this dude wearing dog tages then I looked again and said colar aswell lol
Hes a true brony XD
I was going to say the same thing like we are going to ignore the fact this dude got a collar on
mans is wearing a brony tee shirt too lol but the adivce is solid
With a complex about how the stereo is going to LOOK on the BACK of the stereo THAT NO ONE CAN SEE!!!
Good tutorial...I was searching for one to show someone and yours came up!
You know, although you recorded the video from your phone, it was just fine. Well done and the message is loud and clear! Thanks for uploading.
Thanks for the tip bro. Been banging my head against the wall trying to figure this shit out. I'll try this today.
Did it work?
@@narkyt4356 no. It did not work. The issue lies with the rca cables being too close to electrical system of the vehicle. I ended up coughing up the money for knukoncepts triple shielded cables. The issue is GONE! Ground loop isolator didn't work either. FYI. Peace.
@@michaelzernie7092 what company did you end up going with? Do you think getting an amp could potentially solve my issue?
@@narkyt4356 for the rca cables I bought Knuconcepts crystal cables. The rca cables are for the amp. If your having buzzing sounds and you don't run an amplifier with rca cables, than you've got a ground issue. Find a better ground location. Let me know what's up. Thanks

It's nice to see that there's more dudes out there that get concerned about things INSIDE their dash looking ugly.
worked perfectly for me. thank you
i cooked my sub from the humming when i turned it loud and so i switched it with the one i was using as a reflex speaker and then did this trick and omg it was so quiet i thought the sub was off till the bass hit because i was so used to the annoying hum that i tried so hard to fix then just gave up and said fuck it. ty so much for posting this vid!!!
Also you could buy some coaxial good quality rca to do the same work. But ive done it the same way by grounding my rca! It works!
not only that but tape the sides of the actual stereo itself with electrical tape sometimes the metal on metal can cause audio interference due to grounding issues.
does this make the stereo incapable of surround sound since it connects all the circuits?
Only my right speakers have this noise but the left ones have clean sound, what should that be?
Okay guys these things he's showing you work but in the end you've still got a problem somewhere in the system!! I've seen everything from battery not connected good to bad battery or a bad speaker or bad ground on an amplifier or you hooked RCA's up while the head unit is playing that usually does not bother it LOL what I found with my system was I had a bad diode in the alternator LOL and that bad diode can kill a battery!! So I would say have the alternator checked first and check the battery second if those do not remedy your problem make sure all of your grounds are properly grounded to a good frame ground!! Usually that wine is caused by either the alternator or battery or a bad ground grounding the RCA's is a quick fix but should only be a temporary fix there's still an underlying problem!! So if you're running a big system you need to find the correct issue and correct the problem instead of doing this because in the end you will mess up more equipment!!! Keep jamming hard keep kicking it LOL just remember that wine tells you there's something wrong other than just grounded RCA's!!!
very well said!
Band aid a cut stops the bleeding but an infection (noise in this case) still is exist but now covered up.
Thanks friend. Its good learning for me.
You're the man!
Terima kasih ilmunya,cb saya aplikasi pada mobil ternyata terbukti storing hilang.
Cukup sederhana
Main route cause of buzzing is running your power cable back to the amplifiers along with the RCA's, which is a no no, RCA's should be run on the separate side of the car to avoid interference between the two styles of cables. Power cable will mess with audio signals of the RCA jacks., it's pretty much a ground issue, but this hack is dumb, the issue is not the deck, it's somewhere else. P.S. another cause if hear "whine or buzzing noises" its due to your alternator and another ground issue.
I have an 06 Trailblazer and an 08 Envoy that both have this problem. Going to try it
Did you try?
Why didn't you just bend that tap on the left down and put a connector on the wire and connect to tap?
You can also just wrap wire around any rca jack and ground to metal on radio
thanks alot for all your help did like you my buzzing disepierd right away...
Do you think I could ground the RCA cable at the amp? It shouldn't matter whether I do it at the stereo or the amp, they are connected right? I don't want to pull the deck, it's a pain in the ass to pull.
I know I'm late to party but you shouldn't stop at grounding to the stereo, continue to run that wire and ground to the car chassis, chances are that there is an exposed bolt in the stereo dash area that you can terminate that wire and ground
im going to be making an updated video with that part in it. that's something i learned after i made this video
Is this safe to do?
@@wavyybased1820 Yes, the proper way to ground a head-unit is to use a 8" to 10" length of 16 to 18 AWG OFC wire with two small ring terminals. One end is connected to a screw of choice that contacts to the metal chassis on the backside of the head-unit & the other end is connected to the metal dashboard mount that the head-unit gets mounted to.
The upside down "U" you see, right next to the RCA plugs, on the chassis IS the OEM ground wire outlet. You just a male clip on it and ground it, dude.
I just installed speakers, amp and sub to my factory head unit with an LOC in a 2016 Canyon and had 2 noises. One rpm related and the other just a constant buzz. I moved the amp ground and the rpm noise went away but the constant buzz is still there. Do you have Any idea what I should check now?
Thank you Bro Will do it today !
i do this work just inside old school pioneer amps, some gm stop sounding until grounding rca
Yes this works and well might I add but the make RCA cables with a ground wire for this
This made it even louder lol my problem is I hear the engine noise and everything coming through my speakers I put the ground on the deck to a different location that didn't solve it
Check your ground coming off your amps take it off and grind it down too bare metal again. Dont use a self tapper drill a hole and use a threaded bolt ,nut and lock washer.
Good video but don't go around your screw with bare wire, crimp on a ring terminal or solder it.
There is a male butt connector right next to the cables you could have easily bent out and connected to as well.
I love the shirt. Best part of the vid
I was more interested as to why he was wearing a dog collar, with tags on it. o.o
Can you do this on the amplifier side?
Yes
But just one side... not crisscrossing like this guy did
My JVC X368BT is also giving static from speakers at ignition. Will this work?
Hey Brony, why do you not like soldering anymore?
Moises Beltran your comment confused me... until he dropped that line and your punchline hit me right in the gut! Laughing out friggin’ loud!
Wowwww it really works 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🔊🔊🔊🎶🎶🎶
Sounds like you have a bad ground somewhere. Instead of getto fixing it I would have spent the time to figure out what the actual cause was. But to each their own.
I'm heading down this same path. My radio is well grounded And my amp. It has to either be the 8112 Metra RCA harness, or this.
I tried it and it works
You don't have to wrap around all rca, just one
hey Mon it works thank for the trips .show a way how go make my sub increase in watts what can I do
You probably need the other kind of rcas there are two different types made specifically for each type of amp every amp either takes one or the other look it up to test your amp tovfind our what one u need look up a video on the two types of rcas
i did that but the problem is still there.the noise was a pulsating one like "THUP THUP THUP THUP" when i unplug the RCA cables the noise was gone even the GAIN knob was set to maximum. ther problem is there even when the engine is off. change the RCA cables dozen of times , change the grounding wire and location multiple times no solution al all.
ANY IDEA WHAT CAUSE THE PROBLEM?
Nice video bro, good job
i tried this cause of the frustration u get with this engine noise but to tell the truth when i did this i only felt like things got worst
ElectronicRedPanda I have grounds everywhere. Fuses intact. Still terrible engine noise.
ben raj buy a ground loop on amazon its 10.bucks
can you just do it on the amp end?
it really works, thanks...
I did same like you said, in my situation it is not working. Still noising
I wonder if you pop a meter on it and it still puts out the proper ohms and 2v, 4v, or 5v (depending on your units) preamp output. I wonder if the outside of the RCA is the negative or the inside male part? I do not have this problem, but I have had the wine when you accel in an older system I had. A better ground is what I needed back then. You could always rule out bad RCA's by testing a different pair.
Thankyou so much frien it got fix baby
@Sound Speeds 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter connected to headset of phone , then to 3.5mm to 1/4 phono (,mono) then inserted to mixer using aux send and mic input,, ,, dial does not hum but when you try to dial a number, a loud humming comes up,,, how do I fix this ?
Did this to my kenwood double din and the whine amplified x10 worse any suggestions
Jeremy Arnold make sure your rcs’s are not ran on the same side as your power cables
Can I do this on my home subwoofer?
Worked for me pioneer 2660nex
It work for me 🤷👌
So did it work ?
You should not do this the RCA's are already grounded! Either you have a buzz from blowing an internal fuse on the head unit from hooking up or unhooking your RCA's while the head unit was powered up, or you have a whine which could be a bad head unit ground, bad amp ground, bad battery, bad RCA's, bad battery connections either loose or connected, or maybe even a shorted speaker wire.
is the static pink/white noise heard even with no volume fixed by this?
Did you find out? im getting static from the anntenna/amp turn on wire
am i the only one whos sees the dog collar on his neck🤣
am from the Bahamas just put in a system on friday and now I have this wineing noise I try this method and the noise is stil there
Change your rca ?
...coaxial style
YOU ARE JUST MASKING THE PROBLEM. You will be grounding your NEG speaker terminal to CHASSIS GROUND. This is not advisable. The amp will try and ground itself through your RCAs. This is true on ALL half bridge sub amps. The RCA terminal shield(outside metal) is directly connected to NEG speaker terminal inside the amplifier. How do I know this..... I work on amps for a living.
Lol. And some people think RCA are have electical currents going thru it.
@@TheRalphacosta at logic level yes. But not heavy amperage. Microamp level but at 6v max. Like I said logic level. Same as remote.
Can I do that if I'm using lineout converters? I used it & tapped into my rear speakers to get RCA signal
this help but to stop it get kenwood klf-2 noise filter this work...
Worked for me. Thanks a lot buddy. Why the hell wouldn't the radio makers just do this for you? It would have saved me the trouble of having to remove my radio twice. Fucking assholes!
someone said if i change my stereo to a better/newer one then it would fix problem u think it will? my subs hum when volumes turned off or low and it sounds distorted and stereo whines when the engine rpms go up
westcoastmickey same man lmk when you find a way to fix it , its so annoying
What do you know..bronys can still serve a purpose 😂
the brony shirt though
do you know if this would still work even if I'm not using the RCA connectors?
Dan Miller just take the negative wire, run it to another ground on the head unit
@@Korinrl could you explain this little more, im such a noob in these things, i have alternator whine and my head unit is original without rca's
What radio is that
what do you mean grounded? doesn't the current have to go back to the negative side of the batter for it to be a ground?
ProneToInfection this is actually shielding I think.
The exterior case on most amps are wired to the ground circuit inside the amp, which is connected to the negative on the battery. Lord knows why though
This worked for me!! Thanks. Since this did work, can I narrow down the source of the original problem? Does anyone know what that problem would be if this worked? Its great that its fixed, but I would rather fix it the right way.
Eric Schneider are you using twisted pair or sheilded RCA's? What year are your amps and head unit! I honestly think you just need better grounds on your head unit and or amps but give me the info on your gear and I can figure it out. Could just be gains are set to high as well.
Jim Elam help us we are having Issues
Tried it... did not work
Just ground the chassis. That's what the chassis ground, clearly in video are for
i tried this and it blew all my rockfod fosgate tweeter do you know why it did that
It's called get crossovers 👍🏻
Did he say you need a pair of dirty pliers? 😂
No. He said sturdy
Can I ground my rca's on my amp
Can you ground the RCA's back at the amplifier instead of having to remove the radio and grounding them from there??
Keep me posted same issue
From what I’ve read should be grounded at source end
Good info but you out of the cameras veiw and we couldn' see what you were doing
This makes absolutely no sense at all those connectors are not to have contact with each other
Is that safe???
No
Did not work for me nothing seems to work even after ground replacement
Will this blow my head unit it doesn’t look right.
It's all just grounds touching grounds..the insides/where the holes are, is where the positive is.
THANKS MAN YOU ARE MY SAVIOR! IT WORKED!
Good video but professionals won't do this trick.
Not all alternator whinning is caused by a bad ground but this can work for some but not for everyone. The hum is caused by the power wire to the head unit from the ecu unfortunately.
An inline Alternator to Battery Noise Filter eliminates everything but is costly for that part.
$180 before tax
I was thinking the same thing--intro audio we deal with ground loops quite often... it all comes down to different grounding points within the same circuit... I didn't think you would have the same problem with noise from ground loops in a car installation.. you just don't have multiple points to ground--it's one car, 1 chassis afterall. engine noise, other electrical noise could be introduced through cheap RCA cables. Use 75-ohm coaxial cables with quality RCA connectors should take care of most noise...isolate the audio cables from the power cables (either by routing them separately or physically shielding them in some conduit or tape etc.
I don't think the problem is with the grounding of the head unit-but it is the point in the signal chain in which noise that has made its way into the cabling from somewhere else will make itself heard... so although this may seem to solve the problem, it's really only putting a Band-Aid on it and not actually stopping noise ingress. it's kind of like adding a noise filter for RF interference..
@@nickloss2377 its not a ground loop hum, its a power hum. We identified the issue on the vehicle after a shady install was done and we tried to fix the issue which was in the electrical throughout the vehicle from the computer. None fixable even with a $200+ alternator noise filter, big 4 upgrades and a lot more.
I tried it and it didn’t work
Next time use solid 22 gauge wire... if that actually did anything other than make a mess.
90% of the time its your ground coming out of your amp doesn't match the gauge wire going in. That loop has to be the same. I've seen 4 gauge going in and 10-18 gauge going out to the ground. That will never work. U can use a noise stopping block, but that's only hiding some of the noise, its not getting rid of the problem. Good luck with this method. Lol
With the thickness of that wire's gauge I'm curious to see how you're going to get RCA plugs to seat properly all the way. I think your wire's gauge is way to big, especially if you are going to use amplifiers. A thinner gauge wire will work just as good and will allow any rca plugs connected to it to seat properly. An exception where your thicker wire works is if you are connecting speakers directly to the stereo and not going with an amp.
👍👍👍
I just use the speaker level input LOL
It's not weird at all. Many cheaper stock stereos are not well constructed. The metal frame should not really be used as a ground as it will get hot and you could possible cause a fire if you had an electric issue... but... probably not a huge issue.
Didn't work for me unfortunately
Didn’t work for me I’ve tried everything
Or instead you could have spiderwebbed the wire and used half as much
