y-it Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 Hello all, I've got a 06 Nissan Titan LE and I was planning to use the stock amp/sub combination with a metra amp integration harness for my new 90bt. I've done a "mock" hook-up to test things out and I'm getting a horrible poping cracking sound when I turn the key on and off. Whats the deal? Is the 90bt to powerful for the stock amp or do you think its a bad ground? Thanks, y-it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sy628109 Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 Put a resistor in line with the remote wire and it fixes the popping. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If the radio tells the amp to start up after the radio (the right way) it will typically not pop. I have a Nissan Altima and this setup worked for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ryan420 Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 needs a resistor in line with the remote turn on lead. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
03Aviator Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 First thing to do is find out what voltage your amp uses to enable it. This will NOT be the amp power supply. Only the signal wire. Ford uses 5V and must be reduced. If yours is the same (find out for sure...don't guess), then I would recommend you contact DucatiBoy in the Z forum and get one of his regulators. That is a lot better set up than a resistor.

y-it Posted December 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 thanks I'll do that Now I've got to find out what the voltage output is on my stock amp... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
