What Are the Reasons for the Current Noise in Car Audio When No Music Is Playing?
2 Answers
Car audio produces current noise when no music is playing due to the following reasons: 1. Abnormalities in the wiring connections; 2. Malfunction in the amplifier equipment; 3. Issues with the quality of the speakers; 4. Potential difference. The method to adjust car audio is: 1. Select "Settings" on the central control screen; 2. Find the "Sound Effects" option, enter and adjust to select the preferred sound quality. Car audio is a playback device installed to alleviate the monotony of travel for drivers and passengers. Its components include: the head unit, speakers, and amplifier. Its function is to amplify weak signals from the audio source or preamplifier without altering the sound quality, driving the speakers to produce sound, commonly known as an amplifier.
When the car audio system produces a buzzing sound without playing music, there can be multiple reasons. I believe the most common causes are unstable power supply voltage or poor grounding. While the car is running, the alternator and battery provide current, but significant voltage fluctuations can easily generate noise. Loose or corroded ground wires are even more common and can lead to current leakage, creating a humming sound. Additionally, aging audio cables or loose connectors, as well as signal interference, can also trigger this issue. The noise tends to be more noticeable when the engine starts or the air conditioning is operating. It's advisable to first check if the audio wiring connections are secure, especially at the battery grounding terminal. Clean off any rust and reconnect firmly. If the noise persists, it might indicate an internal amplifier fault, requiring a professional repair shop to test the system. Don’t delay too long to avoid affecting other electronic devices.
