Annoying Audio Whine In Car (Not Female)

that's a deal mate.

Shoot me your credit card number with your 3 digit security pin and I'll allot the cash...

The most annoying thing at the moment is the left side speakers just stop working or fade in an out when I accelerate or hit the brakes hard or turn left. I am going fault finding tomorrow to see if I can find a lose wire on the back of the ICC or the speakers somewhere. Its friggen annoying as it never did it till recently and now its loud as hell but only when listening to anything plugged into the AUX input.

It's probably a woman hidden in the dash

Any update on this topic? My fg does it bad, r) side speakers occasionally stop working when the whine stops and pressing clutch/changing gear makes the sound come and go! WTF!!!!!

is it fair to say that the speakers cutting in and out is a loose connection somewhere as its occuring when taking of from lights or putting clutch in or whatnot.. the sudden change in movement must be causing something to move around so its pulling away from where its connected? I have a full comp stereo in my FG and the whine cannot be avoided (altho I have dramatically reduced it)

mine does it bad only on am though

The top plug on your ICC, does it have bare wires touching each other? My MK2 had very bad whine, I taped up some exposed wires on top of the ICC when I installed my reverse camera, haven't heard it since.

interesting post Stockies... I may have to have a look altho my stereo whine is only heard slightly when volume is down.. I do have 7000W of power running through the system at any given time which would no doubt cause interference through the factory ICC. I just couldnt justify hacking up my facia just to add another headunit in the remaining DIN spot to remove the whine completly so im happy with my results

yeah I was thinking its a wiring issue, something to do with the movement of the shifter and maybe the ipod/iphone cable not installed properly.

I found the wiring for the audio plug was being damaged by the gear selector, take the surround off and tape it up and re-route it the correct way and I have no whine any more in the ute, ford tried to tell me some BS about my fuel pumps causing it, but I found the problem a few months back and fixed it.
