Fitted Infinity 655 CS's yesterday but when the car is running I get a buzzing through the passenger side tweeter. Is there a simple fix?

Anyone?

Have I got the 2 wires the wrong way round, they had a odd colour scheme...

Having the wires the wrong way round woundn't cause buzzing, just an indistinct treble.

Check the wiring to the crossover, and make sure the tweeter is mounted securely. Try changing the tweeters to see if its the crossover or the tweeter

Does it make the sound when there's nothing playing on the head unit, i.e. silence in between CD tracks etc.?


If it does, it suggests something on the head unit side of things. If it's when there certain sounds playing, it suggests its the tweeter or mouting etc.

As posted above, swapping it for the other side would be a good start.

(edit) re-reading your post you say it's when the car is running; this sounds like interference maybe? Does it rise in pitch when you rev the car?

I only hear it when the engine is running - both sides sounded great during the install, but when I started the engine up the passenger side started buzzing - so basically, they sound fine until I start the car up.

I've also noticed another electrical gremlin which may be related. My horn now triggers a Laser alert on my Origin B2 (as does altering drivers side wing mirror, but it did this before fitting speakers). One thing it could be is I have a 4way *** lighter adapter hidden behind the centre console to power the Origin & a phone cradle - I think the adapter is more than likely sat on top of the head unit.
