    Default Amp Interfering With Radio

    I have narrowed it down to my amplifier that is interfering with my FM radio. If i move some of the amp cords around it stops the radio station going fuzzy, but then when i drive around the cords must move again and it goes fuzzy again. Im sure some of you have had this problem as well, any tips on how to stop this happening? The Amp is mounted under my passenger seat since i drive a Ute.

    the antenna cable runs on passenger side kick panel, then under the dash...

    where are your wires run from/to?

    the passenger side kick panel is exactly where my amp wire runs through. Do you think thats my problem, the amp cable is too close to the antenna cable?

    An issue which Im familiar with is when it happened to a friend. He had the gain turned up too far on the amp. He could even here the indicators through his speakers. After he turned the gain down to a lesser level, the interference disappeared immediately.
