Pioneer DEH 3700 ground problems/system noise

Hi, I have a pioneer deh 3700 head unit. All was fine, with a seperate amp. I hooked up another amp for subs and all was fine. All of a sudden, at the end of the assembly, started the car and have fuel pump and alternator noise. I hooked up a alternator filter, no change. Tore all apart, searched the web, grounded the chassie, set up another amp and new cables temp. Same noise. I grounded the rca cable with a hand held wire to the chassie and the noise disappeared. I don't know if that is a normal thing to do, never have before, and don't really know how this is effecting the signal/stereo. Could the head unit have gone bad, can you blow line level outs, is there a ground in the unit that has gone bad?

Very common with pioneers. their is a ground loop fuse-located inside the head unit, that has to be repaired at the factory. Or, the best way-just like you said, is to ground the rca's, solder a thin wire to each rca, easiest and cheapest way. I had it happen to me with a 4800.

try checking your connections on the back of your head unit. your audio cables might have come unplugged which could be causing your amp not to receive any sound

Pioneer DEH-P9300 and Ipod Adapter Problem

The correct iPod adapter for this is the CD-IB100ii, not the PAC piece you bought. With the correct adapter you will be able to charge your iPod, get text and control from the head unit, and of course audio playback through your system.

No sound w/ pioneer DEH-P3700MP

chrystler sometimes has an amplifier. the blue with a white stripe wire on the radio is for that. connect it to a black wire that was left over. ps it isn't on the wireharness on the radio. it is the one just laying inside the dash accomidating the other wires. it should turn on just fine.

Can't fit subwoofer amp leads to pioneer DEH-2000MP Head unit

pioneer head units only distribute like 200 rms or so to the speakers. you might have to find a blue maybe even blue with white striped wire and nick it just enough to tie your amp wire around it. tape it up and see if it works.

Alternor noise

I had the same problem with my Pioneer Head Unit.

I changed the ground of the Head Unit and the AMP to the same location and that took care of the Alternator noise.




Best of Luck.

Loud engine noise through speakers

Jadrian - I purchased a DEH-P780MP and have the exact same sound. My suond however increases in pitch throughout the RPM range and is audible when operating the headunit on ACC. I have found this problem to being typical in Checy Sports cars since I can swap this head unit out from my camaro SS into my Mustang Saleen and the sound disappears. The same is true for a swap into my SUV. Never quite figured it out! I think the 12V line from the fusebox or from the battery itself doesn't have "clean" power.
