THANKS TO OUR FRIEND, ROB GOMEZ AT AMERICAN HARDBAG (AND JESSE!) FOR THIS FIX FOR A STRANGE “”POP/SQUEAL” ISSUE THAT SEEMS TO COME UP PERIODICALLY. NOT ALWAYS, BUT ENOUGH TO BE A CONCERN IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING THIS NOISE ISSUE THIS SEEMS TO BE THE ULTIMATE FIX. WE ARE WORKING ON THE PERMANENT FIX NOW ON OUR DSP AMPLIFIERS.
This modication uses a standard Bosch-type SPDT relay. Please note terminal 87 is not used in this application.
If wired correctly, the relay will momentarily open the turn on circuit to the amplifer while the motorcycle is starting. The addition of the diode quenches any momentary spikes that could cause pops in the rapid turn on/off sequence.
**SPECIAL NOTE: IF ANYTHING UNUSUAL HAPPENS…LIKE BIKE ENGAGING…THE RELAY IS WIRED WRONG!!!! PERIOD!!!!!!
