Why do I have a weird noise coming from the passenger side door speakers of...

[ty n]

...my Chevy Equinox? There is a static noise, similar to white noise, constantly emitted through the speakers in the passenger's side door of my Chevy Equinox. Even with the speakers turned all the way down this happens. It gets louder with acceleration and is very annoying. Is something grounding my system out somewhere??? How would I find it? What could it be? The system is all factory - no aftermarket. WTF? thanks

The speaker might either,
1.not hooked up right.
2.some cable might be loose.
3.blown out.
4.it might be hitting another wire.
Open your door pannels and check the wiring.
5.also it might be the stereo.

From your description it sounds like your audio system is picking up motor noise/interference but why it's only going to the right side and not all speakers isn't clear. And I cannot account for how this could happen at all with the speakers turned all the way off. No noise at all should be heard if the speakers are truly off. Something may be damaged. But static getting louder with acceleration is most likely caused by the alternator or engine coil. After checking all the connections and grounds, I'd start there by getting filters for your alternator and the power line into your system. As you are checking the connections and wires, make sure no wiring is routed near wires and devices that emit RF interference like a heater motor or vehicle computer, etc. The PDF link is more detailed,
