<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV> <P>Check if your speaker wires are running over or near a 12V power wire. They should not. Make sure if you have an in-line fuse for power that the wires are good and tight going in and out. Dealt with this problem myself. I had the loose 12V power wire at the fuse.
