You can buy this harness from Scosche which comes with RCA's already built in & retains the factory amp & sub. (Works but Scosche messed up the pin locations on the amp harness connector so you will need to re pin it anyways) But I personally recommend using the method shown in this video. Building it yourself is always better right?

This video was a life saver! My husband put in a new head unit into my jeep and it made a white noise sound. I couldn’t stand it. I was very upset. He told me there was nothing we could do about it. So I did my own research and found this video. I rewired the speaker wires to RCA cables and it worked!! No more white noise. Thank you so much!

This helped me with a T'eyes CC3 install on a Honda CRZ. Very similar set up and noise issue, with sound coming through very loud due to stock amp. I used Speaker-to-Phono adapters with visible positive/negative slots as this was the first time I have done anything daring by myself with a car audio system and none of the RCA cables I had at home looked like yours after opening them up. I watched this video a few times and it gave me the confidence to give it a try. I'm glad I did, thank you!

I might have this question solved when I go try it later, but I'll comment anyway because this video and the last one about the topic is great!!! I have an FD5 (CSX Type-S) so it took me ages to even find the amp wire since the wiring diagram is different to civic haha , but anyways, I ran a parking brake bypass that I found at a wreckers, worked for me, but back then I didn't have the amp wire connected. That being said, I converted the speaker wires to RCA following your method, and when I go put it back in the car, I'd you reset the head unit with Network mode? Or kept it the same?

Like my pioneer harness is still connected to my metra adapter all the greens purples and whites ect are connected still I just was thinking I could rule out the issue related to the amplified double signal just by unplugging the head unit entirely?

So what about the factory subwoofer that came with the Premium Sound package? Shouldn't there be designated RCA jacks for that as well?

@DanielKellert 2 года назад

The factory sub runs off the rear speaker input, then the amp sends an output to the sub. So no there isn’t a designated port at the headunit, but there is designated ouput wires for the sub coming out of the amp.

@natesambo9759 10 месяцев назад

My problem on a 2009 Accord isn’t so much static but popping on the front alpine component speakers and like you said it’s really really loud, like at 4-5 volume. This makes sense to bypass the amp by using the RCAs. Still trying to figure it out.

@landondavid5773 7 месяцев назад

Are you running your remote turn on wire through a relay? Sometimes with multiple amplifiers and not using relay there will be a timing difference between head unit power on and amp power on. That causes the pop.

@dankmasterflex Год назад

Just got done wiring it this way after I wired it to the to the speaker harnesss but now i just realized now on my head unit, I only have 2 audio ports one left and right and the other four are yellow and are video ports. Is there any way a rca splitter will recognize the Rear right and left cables or do I need a new head unit with more ports? Thanks.

@dankmasterflex Год назад

Update: I just bought a rca y splitter cable from my local store and then put the left front and left rear rca into the y adapter which splits that into one rca cable which I plugged into the left out and did the same for the right out audio input and everything seems to be working good and I now have power to all speakers, still get a slight static but it’s only noticeable when no music is playing not sure if it’s from the adapter but it’s a lot more quieter then how it was when I wired it without RCAs

@DarkLight4131 2 года назад

hey could you explain a bit more of how you created the on-off ebrake switch? on my alpine's e-brake wire, do I just connect it to one end of my rocker switch, and then connect the harness's ground wire to the other end? It was a bit confusing how you explained it in the video cause you have the green e-brake wire coming off both ends of the switch. Thanks!

@DanielKellert 2 года назад

Literally cut the wire in half, install a switch in the middle of the wire & ground the other end to the black ground wire in the harness (or a chassis ground). But as I explained in the video. That black wire is chassis grounded so you are perfectly fine to ground you’re e brake wire to the black wire & run a switch in series of that connection.

@@justinflores1386 That doesn’t make much sense that you would hook the front RCA’s up to the rear outputs on the headunit then get sound at your rear speakers. All that should happen when you do that is the sound will still play out of the front speakers but then when you go to adjust each individual speaker level, you would need to increase the “rear speaker” output & it would make your front speakers louder because you have the front speaker RCA’s hooked up to the rear speaker outputs so the headunit would just display it as you’re turning up the rear. The headunit isn’t going to know what you have plugged into it, all it does is regulate how much power it wants to output to each RCA port based on the commands you give it. If that makes sense

I went and tried it again just now and it was giving me sound in the right rear but not the left rear. I checked my wiring several times and even rewired it several times. I don’t doubt I’m doing something wrong though. I’m horrible at electrical stuff. I’m using old RCA’s so that my be the issue as well. I ended up ordering the Scosche HA13B.

Yes you can. The subwoofer wiring would be completely separate from the factory system with its own amp. So you would run a power wire directly from the battery to the amp (with the appropriate sized in line fuse), RCA’s from the subwoofer pre out on the back of the headunit to the amp, speaker wire directly from the amp to the sub, a good ground cable from the amp to a chassis ground & depending on your setup, a bass controller wire & a remote turn on wire. You do not need to tie into the factory wiring whatsoever to install an aftermarket sub & amp.

@jeremybreeden4228 2 года назад

@@DanielKellert Aside from tying into either the speaker wires coming directly off the factory head unit, which is my preferred method if installing a line out convertor, or tie into the rear speakers. From my experience using a line out converter doesn't give you nowhere near the bass an aftermarket headunit does though. Maybe if I would have tried a higher grade LOC, I would have had better luck but I wanted more controls anyway so installed a jensen vx7020. Have a great night!

I've been having trouble lately with my after market sound system with it buzzing and whining when the car is on. I tried changing the ground location, tried new rca cables, ive tried rewire the speakers and nothing seems to work. I have a 4 channel amp that I'm running to my door speakers and a 2 channel amp for my sub's. I have all my wires separated and not touching but it continues to whine and buzz. Any other solutions to fix this problem?

@DanielKellert 2 года назад

So you have the factory amp completely out of the equation then? I’m assuming you’re just running RCA’s directly from the headunit to the amp, then speaker wire from the amp directly to each individual speaker on its own channel. If that is the case you should not get any static unless you have a bad set of RCA’s or an internal issue with the amp. If you tied into any of the factory wiring however, there is always a possibility. Unfortunately I would need to see how you have it wired up to help any more than that :( hopefully that helps a bit!

@darkslayerjl 2 года назад

@@DanielKellert I still have the factory amp installed as I don't know where its located in my Acura TSX. And im connected through the wiring harness to my door speakers. Should I just run them separately to each door speaker instead of the wiring harness? I bought some ground loop isolaters but havent tried them out yet to see if that'll help or solve the problem

@DanielKellert 2 года назад

@@darkslayerjl Okay you could possibly be tapped into the factory harness on the input side of the factory amp. Just like I was in this video, sending an amplified signal to the factory amp & causing the static. If you’re running an aftermarket amp you need to either run separate wires directly to each speaker, or tap into the factory harness on the output side of the factory amp. I can’t say 100% for sure that is your issue, but it sounds like it will point you in the right direction, or will possibly fix it.

@darkslayerjl 2 года назад

@@DanielKellert I'm not sure if I had the wirrs connected to the input or output of the wire harness. All I know is its a after market head unit and I have a metra wiring harness that I used to connect to it. If you have a snapchat, facebook or Instagram so I could show you how I have it set up.

@jeremybreeden4228 2 года назад

Could you still run a amp for a sub with this setup

@DanielKellert 2 года назад

Yup! Just run RCA’s for the front & rear speakers how I did in the video. Then run a full set of RCA’s off the subwoofer pre out on the headunit to the amp you’re using for the subs!

@jeremybreeden4228 2 года назад

@@DanielKellert dang, thanks for the super fast response. This is what I was thinking but I just wanted to make sure. I think the factory amp puts out plenty of power for the vocal speakers, so that's why I wanna use this method so I don't have to run new wires from a amp to all speakers. Just have a separate amp for a sub. Thank you for the video man.

Yes this should not affect your cruise control at all. It’s nowhere near the same circuit. I do not have steering wheel controls for the headunit anymore though. (I never use them & the module was like 50 bucks 🥴)

@lexpen9016 7 месяцев назад

you could've just disconnected the ground for amp, and the signal would've passed through unamplified

@Jay482 2 года назад

Why didn’t you just simply cut the baby blue amp wire from the factory harness or disconnect the cable from the amp, wouldn’t that solve the problem? You made it seem complicated than what it is

@DanielKellert 2 года назад

Then you would have no audio? If you disconnect the amp power wire your amp would not work. All of the speakers with the factory wiring receive their power from the amp. The headunit just sends the signal to the amp. So if you just wanted to run the speakers strictly off the headunit power, you could bypass the amp & wire each speaker individually or by using a bypass harness. That’s up to you, but then you’re no longer using the power of the factory amp. The method I showed in this video retains the use of the factory amp.

@Jay482 2 года назад

@@DanielKellert okay makes sense. I assume you was using an aftermarket amplifier. I’m use to doing it the traditional way, headunit, aftermarket 4 channel amp, mono amp for subs and running new speaker wires all around to get the best possible sound. But nothing wrong doing it this way to retain the factory setup.

@DanielKellert 2 года назад

@@Jay482 If I was putting subs in & upgrading speakers in the car. 100% yes I would scrap the factory amp, get a 4 channel amp, run speaker wire from the amp to each speaker & run RCA’s from the headunit to the amp. Then get a mono amp for the sub to run it individually, again with its own set of RCA’s from the headunit then speaker wire from the amp to the sub. The point of this video was to help people who just put a headunit in their civic with the premium audio system & now they are getting static in the speakers due to the factory wiring with the factory amp. Not how to wire in new speakers & a new amp & subs 😅.

@vinipess Год назад

Jesus, no! You need a converter for that! It’s not a direct RCA plug connection! The head unit sends higher voltage through the colored (bare) wires (amplified) and very low voltage through the RCAs (pre amp musical signal only). Hope it will not burn the RCA input of your amplifier.

@DanielKellert Год назад

That’s the whole point. The factory head unit in these cars sends a low voltage signal to the factory amp. When you install an aftermarket headunit & use the regular coloured wires, you are sending high voltage signal to the amp which causes the buzzing/static noise & will cause your amp to pre maturely fail. Using the RCA ports mitigates this because of exactly what you just said. The factory amp does not have RCA inputs. It has signal inputs & power outputs with regular 14-16 gauge insulated wire. That is why this fix works. If you are running an aftermarket amp, yes you need to run proper RCA cables. You are correct in everything you’re saying, but I don’t think you understand the factory inputs & outputs in the premium audio systems of these cars.
