Midlife has a strange radio problem, one that the electricity expert can't figure out. Here it is:
The lights for the radio flicker according to the signal level of the radio: speech or music. I can turn the speakers down all the way, and that doesn't affect the flicker, nor does turning up the volume. I figure that it is a grounding problem, but where? Light power line? Speaker? Internal Amp? External Ground? The radio is a standard aftermarket POS, connected to two tweeters in the dash and speakers mounted low on each door (turned off by fade switch).
Any radio installation expert's opinions are most welcome.
