Pop with Power Power Down and Security Power Cycle
Okay, feeling like I made a mistake here with this hogtunes purchase. Is anyone getting a pop though the speaker after shutting of the key/power switch and the security system flashes the blinkers? There is also a popping when the bike is off and the 4-way hazards are flashing, with each flash!
Of course suddenly this fully "plug & play" system is my problem to fix, according to hogtunes tech support- damn it!
Parts are their 4-way amp kit with 4 speakers.
Bike is 2014 SGS with added tour-pak and speaker HD pods.

The issue is that it seems that all of the accessory power leads pulse with the security system, and I thinks, the flashers. I am going to test the later tonight.
Thanks!

Everything I have put in the sled have instructed me to tie the black wire to a designated grounding point other than the battery. Are you actually connecting the black wire to the battery? Or the post adjacent to the battery?

Hey Tailwind, that is a good question/ observation, I have it hooked directly to the battery. I did not realize there was another post somewhere I could hook to.
I will look into that- Thanks!

I don't know shix about electrons, but since all of my past instructions pointed me towards this ground point, there has to be a reason. I hope!!!
Hope this fixes the issue.

Think it's an 11 metric nut, or that seemed to work the best with the harder access. Stuff your hand in there from the right side panel area to manage the nut and wires.

UPDATE: After testing that the amp pops with any input, Hogtunes has requested that I send it in for testing. Now, the are going to try it on some other bikes to see if they do the same thing-fingers crossed...
