The Amp and the Car head unit should be on a separate wire. The Amp should run directly to the battery and be at least a 8 to 12 guage wire. If it is not, you will get this type of symptom. Good Luck Please dont forget to rate this thread

I have a red signal light that keeps blinking in gp328 any ideas?

A blinking red light can be a sign of the radio picking up radio frequency waves (RF) on your same frequency or a nearby frequency. There may something transmitting in your area which is causing the blinking light, or you may have another radio which could be stuck in transmit. One way to check this is to take the radio to a different location and see if the blinking still occurs.

Next, the question would be, does the radio function otherwise correctly? If so, continue to use the radio and do not concern yourself with the light. If the radio does not function properly, they you should send it to a qualified radio repair center for service.

Best regards.

Projector keeps shutting off by itself

These blinks [flashes] are fault indication (Error Codes). From the number of blinks occur at one time switch ON, you can get an idea about the faulty circuit stage inside it. This will make repair easy. These are called blinking codes. Make sure about the exact number of blinking of the standby/power led, by switching On & OFF the set, for at least two times. Count it carefully. If you wish to get some details, check the site linked here. It has details about blinking codes, and fault locating, to many popular brand TVs and other devices. Viewing it in "Mosaic" will make surf easy.

If blinks continue without any pause, the main board is faulty.
Search the site by type in the "brand name" to your device, [Exclude the model number] in the "Search box at the top right of the display window of the Homepage" to get gathered related posts.
