In dash Radio repair?

Foose04 · 09-16-2012, 09:20 AM

Not sure what the heck actually happen, but putting my sub box back in the truck yesterday and some how got an arc when installing the speaker wires into the amp. Radio was on low (dumb I know) Not sure if wires touched or what, but now every speaker is making loud humming sound. Only way to stop it is disconnect RCA's.

I think it's the indash because I have one amp for highs, one for sub and when I remove the RCA the humming stops to that speaker.

In dash is a Pioneer premier x90, couple years old.

Thoughts on what happen? Fixable or was that a 500+ dollar arc?
