Did you run your RCA cables down the opposite side of the power cable?

i ran the rca, power and remote on the driver side, and when they reached the trunk i ran them to the oppisite side so it didnt get in the way of the ground wires. should i run the rca on the right side instead?

thanks

Yep, RCA's HAVE to be ran down the opposite side as the power wire is.

Change that and let me know if that takes care of it
