I have a strange radio static noise issue.
87 Jeep, 4X4, stock wagoneer ltd. with an after market, recent vintage, new, cassette/AM/FM stereo with a new internal (indoor) electronic amplified radio antenna, also no stock aftermarket. I have a seperate power toggle switch (custom) that allows me to run the radio with out the keys in the ignition (I recently by passed the igntion switch for the blower fan, and radio power).
The stereo sound is great, no static, great signal with just the radio turned on. Once I turn the ignition to the run position (but with the engine off) I start getting noise like I would if I was too far away from the radio station, or like I would with the engine running with the wrong spark plugs and wrong plug wires, except the engine is OFF!!! WTF? Anyone ever run into and slve this problem before? Is the Renix ECU or TCU be throwing off RF noise that the radio or antenna is picking up, or is it a ground issue?
