I installed an AVH-X5500BHS a few weeks ago.  Everything is working fine.  I now installed the AVIC-U250.  Once the nav module boots up, it creates a high pitched engine whine  Anyone experience this before?  I tried a new U250 and a new RGB cable, tried a new ground for the nav module, and tried in line power filters, nothing works.

are you able to use a bypass and the u250? also can you still display video and use the u250?

I have the same problem, any luck getting rid of the engine noise?

I use AVH-X8580BT with a AVIC-U250 and I'm having the same problem (also happens with the AVIC-F220). This noise is not coming from the installation or vehicle. This is a flaw in the RGB input of the new devices from Pioneer ("X" models).
