Question

Help answer this question below.

I hear a very annoying high pitched noise when I plug in my transistor and iPod. The noise gets worse when I accelerate. I have no clue what it is except that it is connected to my radio. My car is a 2005 Kia Spectra. What is it? How do I fix it?

    I believe it could be a ground problem with your radio. I have seen it before where interference had made a high pitched sound that came from stereo speakers upon acceleration. I work on semi trucks, and have seen this problem with CBs. I have seen where the ground cable to the cab is bad and the cb would not have sufficient ground, as the cab or body is mounted on rubber bushings. I do not know if this is your problem or not but may be worth looking into.

    • Thank you! My car completely died on me today! I was getting a snowball and when I turned my key to go home, nothing happened. No lights, no nothing. This is the 2nd time this happened in 4 months and I bought my car in September. I don't know what to do!
