put my sub and amps in the car today, and now when ever i start the car there is a crackle through the speakers and i can hear the cars engine through the speakers, when ever i accelerate there is a fairly high pitched wine.
which will get really annoying, really fast.
i've cleaned some of the earths i can find, because apparently if there is any s**t on them that could cause it, but it hasn't cured my problem.
cheers.

RCA's are squished or not in correctly

Someone I know had this very problem. Turned out, they'd wired it incorrectly. It'll be a small schoolboy error IMO, something like connecting a wrong wire somewhere.

yeah got an adapter, not sure what its exact name is, but it also houses 2 fuses for both my amps.
perhaps it is a silly error, but it will have to wait, because it took hours to do and i aint looking through it all anytime soon haha
i will check the earths and rca's though.

I had this exact problem I found a speaker wire that became unsheeved and the exposed wires was touching the cars bodywork. So check all your wires it took me the best part of 2 days before I discovered this! I re-wired the whole setup before I discovered it was just one speaker cable
