Audio Systems: Car Audio On and Off at Loud volume, dodge grand caravan, infinity speakers


Question
Hello,

I just bought Dodge Grand Caravan 99 model, I am using Pioneed
DEH-P47H, sound good, but when I turn up the volume and make it loud it gives
me breaking sound like sound,silence for one second and again sound for
two second and again silence, so I changed the CD player with PIONEER
DEH-1900MP, but the same problem. All the speakers turn off for a
second. It gives good sound at low volume control. I have no idea what's
wrong with the system.

Thanks in advance,
Yash

Answer
You are overdriving the factory system. If it has Infinity speakers, the amp is receiving too much signal from the head unit. If it is just plain Dodge speakers, you have a bad voice coil in one speaker. Best to upgrade them to aftermarket, as the factory ones are junk, paper cones.
