Is the home-dock's loopback wire loose in the docking connector? If so, then that could explain all of this trouble..


I am using a special sled connector we set up for testing tuners and AC/DC detection. It only has one set of RCA outpus for the front, the tuner wiring, ignition sense and power with a female power jack on the end to accept an AC adapter. The noise you speak of must be internal to the player because when Hijack observed the noise, the connector was not being used and the player had the AC adapter directly plugged into it. By the way which wire is the loopback wire? I've not heard much about it.

Thanks again,
Stu
