| Wierd car grounding issue (I think). |
| << < (2/4) > >> |
| Howard_Casto:
Yeah I'm sure. As I've noted above it's currently already attached to the chassis. A ground to the battery wouldn't make any difference... unless the ground locations I've already tried are bad... that's what I'm trying to rule out. |
| dkersten:
I read it as you had grounded the 5v adapter to chassis ground, not the common side of the input you created in the factory unit. |
| Howard_Casto:
No the chassis of the stereo. The old delco units don't have a common ground wire internally if that's what you mean. There is a ground wire on the stereo harness, but that leads to the metal housing (chassis) of the stereo. |
| dkersten:
But the common wire on the input itself, is it grounded to the chassis of the stereo? or is it floating (only connected to the pre-amp circuit in the delco)? |
| Howard_Casto:
Yes, that's the ONLY ground for the stereo. It wouldn't make any sense to ground it to anything else except to troubleshoot. |
