why does the lights when on make my radio go all static

I would check the ground cables. You also might need a voltage regulator as well

I don't know. All I can tell you is that I have a tv, computer, two stereos and dvd player plugged in. If I connect any one of the to another or turn all on at once I get no hum or static. The volume is a little reduced with each button pushed down but no other issues. It shouldn't matter but maybe a shielded cable? I used to have an old computer that produced radio frequency interference. It made static on the older tube type television if it was close to it when I connected cheap audio cable to it.. just throwing that out. Good luck.

The short answer is locating the antenna and hooking up the power. I took power directly to the battery. There is less RF interference that way. It's a great radio and has done good for about two years so far.

Unplug your connectors an make sure u don't have a prong that is bent...i had that happen on my new headlights

The only thing I know is the controller have all 3 (red, green & yellow) lights on. Also make sure you screwed in the antenna all the and extended it all the way up.

Not really sure why it did that, it sounds like one of your wires might be crossed and it is blowing your headlight. I had an electrical buddy install mine and the switch is working fine. I wish I knew more about wiring to help you but all I can say is trace your wires and double check them to see if they are going where they need to. Good luck

Yes we had the same problem. My antenna was loose. I contacted amazon and received a new one. We still have static on certain channels.

I used one of those chandelier light bulbs, it's very low light and has 3 light options. It stays on until I turn it off, but I haven't left it on for a very long period of time. I read on the reviews that static might affect the light staying on or turning on by itself.

Sounds like you have a short in the antenna wire. Check for continuity between the center wire and the ground shielding on the antenna wire. Most likely if shorted the problem is in the connector where it connects to the radio. Also try a different antenna & wire.

You might need to reduce a little bit the box where the radio fits with a knive or something... it should not be a problem to you... it happens with all the radios you can buy unless its the factory one... go ahead...

I would try deleting the FM presets that are currently stored. Select 88 to 108 and then try the auto tune again. The FM stations should generally not need to be retuned manually to get better reception.

there must be something wrong with your connections or you have a bad radio i have never had to reset mine. What happens to make you have to reset it?

I have not had this problem.. No static on my device check if there is like a modem near by That could probably cause the static.

I have exactly the same problem with my radio, which basically renders it USELESS in my area. They should warn customers before hand that this is the situation. Send it back for a refund if you can.

If you don't have that feature on your radio then just tape off the end so it doesn't short out on anything. Double check your wiring to make sure you didn't hook something else up to it, it seems odd that your radio head wouldn't have an option for it.

I haven't experienced that. You might want to check the antennae connect because sometimes that does get loose or disconnected when installing the radio back in. I noticed the antennae cable does not reach that far

That is strange. The one thing that I noticed is that the bass needs to be turned up a little in order for the lights to react like it should. If the volume or bass is too low the light does not pick up as well.
