just unstalled ipod interface cable into the back of my pioneer head unit. for somereason it is making a funny noise like it is getting interference, even when unplugged from the ipod. anyone have any ideas?

thanks

 

Your without the box it's making noise? Soder some wire to the metal surrounding of the RCAs and screw it down tot he HU.

 

there are no rca cables jjust the one acble from the ipod directly into the port on the back of the head unit

 

Never head of that happening. Where and how (meaning how did you connect)the power and ground for the CD-IB100?

 

has no ground and no power wire its the cd-i200 just goes from back of head unit into ipod

 

Do what I said with the RCA cables from the HU.

 

Ahh, ok, so you must have a DEH-P490(0)IB, P590(0)IB, or P690(0)UB right?

- Does it stop when you unplug the cable?
- Do you have an amp hooked up? (Otherwise he would have no RCA cables to ground.)
- Does it do it on all sources, or just when you select "IPOD"?
- Does it change with the volume **** or stay the same?
- Does it do it even with theengine not running?
- Make sure you didn't unhook/pull out the ground for the headunit when you took it out or re-installed it. It will still work because it's grounding through the antenna, but you will get noise.

Sorry for all the questions, just trying to paint a scenario here.

 

You think too much in one post

 

IT STILL MAKES THE NOISE WHEN THE IPOD IS UNPLUGGED AND ON ALL SOURCES. STOPS WHEN ENGINES IS OFF BUT NOISE DOESNT CHANGE WHEN VOLUME IS TURNED UP OR DOWN. AND YOU THINK THIS IS FROM THE RCA CABLES?

 

If you have an amp hooked up then it's possible. And when I said unplugged, I meant, if you unplug the CD-I200 from the back of the headunit, does it go away?
