G'day,
I think my car has an electrical problem...
First symptom, the rear speakers make a hissing noise whenever the car's ignition is turned to 'on'. This has something to do with the fuel pump, as it stops as soon as you unplug the pump. I made a post about this a week or two ago, and some people suggested it was to do with earthing, but I tried connecting the earth to many different places, including the exhaust pipe, with no difference.
Symptom two (this one is worse I think). The terminal on my battery gets a white buildup, I've seen this on a few cars, and that's all good and stuff, just clean it off... however, I've only ever seen it on the positive terminal of the battery, and my car gets it on the negative! Is it just me, or does this sound like there is something seriously wrong with the grounding in my car?
Sorry about the long post, any help would be greatly appreciated.
