I Have a Panasonic Head Unit, two amps, two subs, blah blah blah, jis recently i have been getting feedback through speaker (buzzing sound up n down with throttle) also if i leave face plate in my battery will go flat!

Does any one have any ideas why this occuring and what i might do to fix it?

Thnank-you

2 Questions

1. What quality are ur signal cables?

2. Where abouts does ur cabling run

Hey Jay,

Thanx for the responce, obviously an auto elec has put it together, the cables look fairly desent, however there is a fair bit of a mess in the upper back right of ther boot (cables leading into the back seat from boot) and another factor could be the battery acid which seems to have corroded areas, also bit of residue on amp plugs.

You seem to think its obviously a problem with my leads, and i dare say it must be in the boot being the only exposed cables, what do u suggest?

Thankyou

Hey mate

Your autoelect has probably gotten lazy and wired the signal and power cables right next to eachother without a noise filter.

The best way would be rewire them at least 30cm away from eachother. But it's easier to install a noise filter on all your power cables, this is the quickest but also priciest way, you will need to make sure the noise filter has the same or a larger power handling than the maximum consumption of your amp.

The exposed wires in the boot should be no hassle and the battery acid should only be a problem if it's corroding any of your wires.

Hope that helps!

Cheers mate,

I think your probably got it solved, sounds like a job for the weekend though, I'll let you know how it goes. Much appreciated.

Thanks again!

is you head unit on when you turn your car off?

means ur HU is not wired up properly. the acc wire is hooked up to the positive.

feed back though the speakers can be billions of things (i had this issue before)

*power cables and speaker cables running near eachother

*Alternator issues

*head unit problems (which was my issue in my civic)

have fun mate :P

im not sure about speaker wiring... but this may be help to anyone who has had wiring done...

the reason you must seperate your power cables and your speaker cables is due to magnetism... when a wire has current flowing thru it (power cable), the current running thru the cable generates a magnetic field... this magnetic field "induces" current into the speaker wires which obviously carry the sound current... the hissing/interference noise is that magnetic field interferring (inducing curent) with the sound signals going from the amp to the speakers... this is same problem as running data cabling next to power cables for socket outlets... the magnetic field disturbs the data signals between computer and you have all sorts of problems... this is generally overcome by "screening" or "shielding"... im not sure if you can get audio cabling that has this built into it aswell...

hope this answer any questions as to why you must seperate your power cables from just about anything else...

:O

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
