Sounds like you are trying to fry your Escalade. There is an anti-theft system that requires the key be present in the ignition. If the key isnt it may be bent or altered somehow so it doesnt turn. Check to see of the steering wheel can move at all in either direction. There may be tension on the ignition that prevents the key from turning.
There is a distinct sound that has a hissing component when you first turn on the key. It will last a second or two when the key is turned to the run position. When the engine started the sound will return and continue to produce the noise so long as the engine is running.
A relatively low noise is normal. If you are concerned check other like cars for the loudness level.
The pressure regulator on the fuel rail can also produce a sound when the fuel pump is running. The regulator is under the hood and any reasonable noise would not be a concern, A clicking sound is also normal throughout the fuel system when the engine is running created by the fuel injectors cycling.
when you install a new fuse or only when you turn the key on ??? more info would help here. but if its just when you install the fuse suspect your problem is before the switch. if when you turn the key on, I'd start looking at getting a wiring diagram
you may have a bad ground somewhere within the wiring. If the hiss disappears when you use the mic, it is probably because you are temporarily providing a ground with the x channel of your xlr. either the bad ground is within the speaker, or it is within the house wiring. if you have any fluorescent lights nearby, or on a similar circuit, you will get a hum or hiss. Beyond that, I'm not sure what it could be except possibly a blown component within the speaker.
I had a similar problem where the battery was ok
but there was no sound from the starter and also there no lights on in
the dash when the key was turned. Checked the fuse and checked wire
from the fuse back to the ignition switch. The wire from the fuse was
ok in fuse box but had no voltage at the ignition sw. The was also no
voltage to terminal 30 in the starter relay. Ran a new wire from the
fuse to the ignition and it fixed everything. Check for voltage at
terminal 30 on the starter relay
check your key it has a chip in side it and it may be faulty try your spear and i know it sounds silly but just make sure your kill switch is set to run check the hiss fuse under the seat also swap your fuel pump relay with the fan one the fuel pump relay has brown wires going to it and the fan has black and blue if you have an alarm on it it will be worth checking that make sure that the fuel pump is pluged in under the tank take a look at the hiss light does it go out wen the bike is switched on if it stays on you have a HISS problem any problems let me know and i will do my best to help
the key has magnet on it that may be weakening. It will have to be reprogrammed.
Insert the first valid key into the ignition switch and turn the
ignition switch ON for at least 3 seconds but no longer than 15
seconds. Turn the ignition switch OFF and remove the first key.
Insert the second valid key and turn the ignition switch ON
within 15 seconds. After ten seconds a chime will sound and the Theft
Alarm Light will begin to flash. Turn the ignition switch OFF and
remove the second key.
Insert a new Key into the ignition switch and turn
the ignition switch ON within 60 seconds. After 10 seconds a single
chime will sound. The Theft Alarm Light will stop flashing, turn on for
3 seconds; then turn off. The new key has been programmed.
