Amyone know where the interior (unddr the dash) grounds are?
I've been having a whine from my stereo when the lights are on and wipers...basically anything electric[fan,rear wiper..]...I also Added a new "Body" ground hoping that would help ...I figure no I'll check the grounds inside

any input would be good....

Get a noise supressor from auto parts store and install it. I think its like the old condensors that came with the points sets. Good luck

Or try running your stereo power directly from the Battery, not from the fuse box.but make sure it's fused :eek: and make sure you have a really nice solid ground..not the stock ground wire.

One of the factory dash grounds is next to the parking brake assembly another is on the firewall near the fusebox above the carpet.Check your engine ground strap,you can run a ground direct for the radio,a good noise suppressor on the power feed helps as the one on the + side of the coil may be bad,running a second main ground helps both in this and for the electrical system as a whole.
