Stereo Electical Problem

Keep in mind - this isn't radio being played. It's Bluetooth or RCA audio from my phone. There isn't an AM/FM tuner involved in this.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a resister type spark plug?

 

Is it ok to run resistor type plugs and wires? Will I loose performance? This stuff is new to me if you can't tell.

 

What are the drawbacks of running them? Assuming that would fix my problem (which I don't know).

 

Update. Last night I changed the plugs and plug wires to resistor type and the stereo works perfect now. Engine seems to be running fine as well. Thanks the for help guys.

 

Bluetooth is sbject to the same problem as a radio cause it is one.

 

Your cell phone or iPhone is also a radio. And will pick up those static emissions from the ignition system.

 

I have a question.
Why?
If you are going to the trouble of mounting and wiring in that amp, why not just add a stereo receiver to the mix?

Or do you really like running the battery down on your phone so that if you really need it, you cannot use it?

 

so, what type brand plugs and wires did you end up going with?

 

The problem also persisted when I used a direct connection via RCAs from various source types.

For me, I wanted everything to be hidden behind the dash to appear 100% stock with no radio. The last thing I wanted after I put so much work into a original restoration was to see speakers and a radio head unit. Side note - the Custom Autosound undercover II speakers are great for Jeeps and can be mounted under the seats totally hidden.

Also, my amplifier has a USB charger integrated - so I can put my phone in the glove box, charge it and listen to music at the same time.

can you hear the radio as you are driving down the road? I spent some good money on marine grade kenwood deck, and speakers, and can only hear it when I'm stopped.

 

I can hear it just fine when driving you've got to turn it up some when . I actually really like the under seat set up. It's not so in your face like speakers in the dash.

 

Nope. Smart Phone hater from way back. Firmly believe that the phone should be used for phone calls, not all your banking and email/browser needs. I MIGHT use the GPS maybe once a year. I don't do TEXT. The only other thing I use my phone for is an E-Reader. When I remember to unplug the charger and stick the thing into my backpack.
