Radio noise on FM: solved! (Long) Posted by Ken [Email] ![]() ![]() |
Recently I asked if anyone could help with two problems I was having. One was a staccato clicking from an underdash relay (94 cvt) and a whine from the radio FM band that was RPM dependent. I was stumped.
Then last night, turning on the directionals made the same loud relay noise, and when I stepped on the brake pedal the headlights would dim for a second. When I came out to start the car today, it would not engage the starter solenoid, then the car went dead blank. Turned out to be a loose battery connection, of all things.
I have a quick disconnect on the ground post of the battery. I tightened that down and all is now fixed. So if you have any electrical gremlins, check the battery connections first. My radio is now noise-free, no loud solenoid clicks, headlights bright: all is well in Saablandia
Just a hot tip from your Uncle Ken :)
