RNS 510 Installed but......

(1/6) > >>

ollie288:
I (with MortyGTTDI's help) fitted an RNS 510 to my car. I also have a Blaupunkt 555 amp and JL audio 12 inch sub. I am now getting really bad interference in the radio. It loses signal, sometimes it gets really bad and I have to turn it off. I used a proper ariel adaptor. I do not understand what is wrong with it as it worked fine with the old radio installed. DOes anyone have any ideas?
Also the CD has started to make clicking noises when im listening. (it is not the cd as I have tried more than one) Anyone have any ideas on this?
Any input would be appreciated as it is driving me mad!
Thanks :happy2:

Yeah used a proper one. (Instead of using the cable sheath)

When you say you used an antenna adaptor can you be more specific.

I'd guess the clicking is an issue with the ground pin.   Take a look at the wiring and compare with the pin out sticker on the unit.  Very common, you'll just need to swap the pin.

Im not sure what the adaptor was. I just took the two separate aerial plugs that came on the car standard (rcd 300) slotted the two aerial leads in to the new single adaptor and plugged into the rns.
Ill have a look for the ground pin. :happy2:
