Subject:Static on radio
From:Dan Erlandson

It seems to me that whenever I press lightly on the brake pedal that I get a
rush of static on the radio station that I am listening to. Am I crazy or is
it a bad ground issue.  Yes indeed I lost my original antenna years ago (91
GL) and am dealing with a replacement antenna as well as my own installed
Radio/CD player, but still the static issue is something that has been
bothering me for awhile.  Anybody out there ever experience something
similar?  I know I could answer my own question by cleaning up the ground
connections (2 of them? under passenger seat and on transmission?) as some
posts have recently mentioned, but it will be awhile before I can get around
to that.  Thanks
