Yes sadly I already have Code Alarm. Bought it along with some stereo stuff when my truck got broke into by some Loosers. So I had to use the cash I got to get as much as I could. The Code Alarm works decent but I know it's not the best. My sig says "extra sirens coming soon" and the GMC is a...

Hey everyone. I recently bought one of these little light things. I've seen them on cars, and my brothers Viper Alarm has one also. Amazon.com: Install Essentials 620V Viper Electro Luminescent… (bought on amazon through 3rd party seller for $11) On the back of the package it says this...

Hey guys. Id like to upgrade my alarm system if at all possible. I got whatever I could afford thrown into my system back when I got broke into and had to use whatever cash was left from insurance.. But now I'd like to step it up as the other car in my driveway got hit again a few nights ago...

you really recommend the 997, looks to be comparable to a viper with 2 way, it has a heat sensor and will show car temp on the LCD, and 5th button is for a built into the remote LED light for shining. sounds nice. I want one.

Hey guys, I had my alarm done by a Audio Express... Home of the 1 Dollar Install. (1 dollar but all the parts are WAY overpriced to even out) they are a very popular store in the west and they are everywhere. I got the brand Code Alarm (probably a cheap one) but was sold in store. They had it...

I redid the ground from the HU with a decently larger 8 awg wire and also added a larger battery to chassis and engine to chassis both with a 2 awg wire and between those upgrades and the new HU ground I think I have rid my system of the whine. I couldn't get the wire off the alt to do that part...

That is what I used. A Y splitter

Thanks jkbauemont. I appreciate the response. its going to my Fuze box, not my battery. could I run the new one from alt to fuze positive terminal like the old, or is it better to go directly to the battery? Also if ur silverado is similar where was the wire at, was it more on the bottom or...

Ok.. well guys I have an update, I didnt do gains thing. I will do that tomorrow on my day Off. But I figured this out sort of. I have a loud, and sometimes worse than others loud whine that increases with the RPM. in the FRONT RIGHT speaker only. so the passenger front speaker is where the...

not bad at all.. I got the 18ft JL blue RCA 4 chan's for $30 on ebay from a good seller in arizona. but those look good. they look as high quality as the overpriced $120 dollar ones monster sale. I say go for it

Correct ccab. I have a question for everyone. unless I'm not seeing a farther under where I can't see wire, the stock Positive on my truck (chevy Colorado) alternator is a very small wire. like smaller than 20 gauge. there might be something else somewhere. but it's TINY, and it's added to a...

Ya I'm using small grounds that came in kits, and I'll be adding the BIG 3 tomorrow so that should help with a few things. Hopefully cut down on the alternator whine in general also, but that's not my issue right now. It's this sound that doesn't seem to come from speakers. I'll try unplugging...

Well I do think my gains are to high as I can't turn my HU above 22 or so and it goes to 50. lol. I need to set those correctly. but I'll have to do both amps right? So your saying disconnect the remote shut off wire and see if sound stops. and how does that mean the ground is to long if the...

Nothin in my system is over a year old but the JL sub and amp. So when U say try unplugging speakers, U mean from the amp.. Well I lean over and put my ear next to the speakers and I dont hear ANYTHING. that is why I dont think its coming from the speakers, but it could. But I dont think im...

lol. Im saying there is No music playing, and the car is started, weather Im driving, or sitting still I hear a whine, Its not the ALT whine that normally is there, its not coming through the speakers. I hear the whine and then when I power off the HU after about a second or 2 the sound stops...
