Hi all,

I am having issues with feedback with my stereo since fixing my antenna.

The feedback increases/decreases with speed and has only started since I fixed my antenna (before the stereo worked fine with carplay no feedback). It sounds like white noise.

Does anyone have experience of this and how to fix?
Thanks,
James

First place I would be looking is the antenna earth.

Thanks Tony, yes I initially earthed to the bolt that fixes the antenna base to arch but removing it made no impact.

What else could it be?

Wait I’ve confused myself above - so the earth for the antenna base remains attached in the bolt that fixes the base to car, but the part I initially attached then removed was the antenna wire (into base) fixing to car.

Thanks,
James
