General Interferance

[Donkey]

i just put a rather large CPU fan in the boot of the panda to cool all of the amps and stuff down however i found when it is turned on it gives interfrance to the speakers causing them to buzz.[!] any idears how i could wire it up so that it will not cuse interfance and will turn on and off when the stero dose?? at the moment i have it coming from the remote cable to the amps and the ground cable.

Not so much a panda, more of a grizzaly bear. GRRRR

move the fan further away?

To solve your overheating problem try and ventilate the area (boot?) with fresh air from outside rather than re-circulating warm air.

Maybe put a vent and in line fan in the floor or something?

Any one got any better ideas?

Panda Power!

This works with the ground loop problem (when you hear engine noise in your speakers). So it might work for you too. Buy a 'ground loop invertor' from maplin (£10ish) and put it on the audio cable between the amp and the stereo. If this failt to work try it on the wire between the actual speakers and the amp. Stereos have ground loop invertors in them as standard but it sounds like the cable is 'hearing' the fan via a ground connection. My setup required 3 loop invertors to completely kill the engine noise, but its a complex setup.

Because every fox needs one!

right probabam sorted i simple connected the power cable to an ignition power cable and rooted the power cable down the opposite side of the car to the phono leads and everything. as for ventilation i like wot i have put in so much i am going to w**k another 2 in the parcel shelf they light up purple supper bling chears for the help.

also to get rid of buzzing try to re-ground your headunit to th amp ground sorted mine out
