SPEAKERS MAKES BUZZING NOISE WHEN RADIO ON ARE SPEAKERS PROBLEM OR RADIO UNIT ?

If they only make this noise when the radio is on, but do not when another source is playing, it's likely the radio.

Loud speaker static when the car is off. It drained that battery. I tried pulling the radio fuse but it was still making the noise. I had to disconnect the battery to get it to stop. Any ideas?

I GUESS that the speakers are driven by an after market amplifier. An amplifier needs to be connected to a power source that is only on when the radio is on, through a relay.

So I GUESS that:
  1. The wiring is incorrect. Or
  2. If is has a relay, the relay is stuck.

Static popping and buzzing sounds come from the speakers when the car is running. The Radio is not turned on and it will continue for a long time, quit then start again as you are driving.

Is it a factory amplified system? Could be the volume knob. Might try unplugging the radio for test purposes and see if it still pops and buzzes to get a better idea of where to go next

I put a replacement radio in a 1994 Olds Cutlass Supreme radio makes noise in right rear speaker when tuning in station.

Hi JPLP, A popping or 'motor boating' sound is usually a sign that one of the transistors is defective. As it happens only when tuning in the radio it is possibly in the pre amp stage. Regards John

My radio stopped working

Could be speaker fuse or fuses esp if played loud with bass turned up worst case is power transistors blown then you may as well scrap it considering cost of repair vs second hand radio. Look at wires coming out of back of radio to speakers for inline fuse holders push and twist to open.There could be a fuse in rear panel of radio. Sorry I can't tell you how to remove the radio

Is it after market radio? Check connections from radio to speakers and at the speaker(s) Door slamming knocks wiring loose. Also bad antenna lead can do it also since most radios get ground from antenna.
