Unhappy bluetooth feedback

Morning all,
I have a 17 SGS with a sony AX5000 Mmats all around. When I play (spotify) through my phone, I get feedback when I press my foot brake pedal. I have traced the cables, no loose grounds, or exposed wires. Can the channel be changed on the radio or is there something I'm missing? If I use usb (thumb drive) no feedback. I'm at a loss all. Let me know what you guys think! thanks in advance!

The headlight would have nothing to do with the interference your are describing you get when using the FOOT BRAKE.

Gotcha. My headlight is aftermarket. Thought maybe it was coming from there.

Have you tried different streaming music sources like pandora or Amazon music??

If so do those have interference the same as spotify when applying the foot brake??

Honestly no. I can try. That's really good idea.

Led brake lights? Would that cause an issue?
