I have a 2007 ST1300A with GPS, Autcom Super Pro AVI. A year or so ago (I know a long time) I had to have some body work done (hit a deer). Anyway after I got the bike back, there J&M CB, when turned on, added substantial noise to the Autocom audio. One suggestion, from here, was that I had the J&M Intercom volume turned up (turns out I did). Lowering it to minimum did reduce the noise but not to where it was before the maintenance.
I am finally getting around to trying to resolve the issue totally.
I called J&M to see if I could get some additional clues on where to look. They suggested that I check the ground and stated that it had to be a "frame" ground.
Power is supplied to the units via a Centech AP-1 Auxiliary Fuse Panel. The cabling for the J&M is routed under the plastic so I have not traced it all the way from the Autocom or the fuse panel.
My questions are:
Is the battery negative terminal connected to the frame in some location and if so, where is that connection made?
I thought I'd make a troubleshooting plan before I start takin pieces parts off the bike.
Thanks.
