Basic info: Have kenwood doube din headunit, hornblasters horn with viair compressor and bumper mounted led light bar. Ok so the issue i am having is with the radio. Originally i would hit the horn and i would lose all sound out of the radio. Only sound, everything else worked. Also if the compressor was running and kicked off, i would lose sound. If i resarted the radio it would work properly until the next time i hit the horn or the compressor cycles off. Next i installed an led light bar, when the light bar is switched off i lose sound again. When i lose sound and turn the light bar back on i can hear slight static out of the speakers, if i cylced the light on and off multiple times, SOMETIMES i would get sound back but it was be very distorted. Between other mechanics, my employees, electricians i finally spoke to an electrical engineer from GM for hours at a time and he suggested i replace my relays, the ones for air horn and compressor and light bar, with a relay that has a diode. Well i did that and the light no longer kills the sound BUT the horn will still kill sound ONCE IN A WHILE. Any electrical advise here?
It just a pain to keep turn off and on the radio every time i lose sound
