Which leads me to one of my points in the original thread...

All things in a vehicle share the same ground. In a 13.8VDC system of an automobile all things are grounded to the body, either the the firewall or the fender or the front of the engine copartment so they are all going to go to the same place so how do you eliminate that? If you do you equipment no longer works.

And you said to eliminate any instance of multiple grounds by the same equipment. So are you saying not to ground the DC ground of the Amp and lso ground that same amp with a braided strap?

Also are you saying to ground everything to one common point in the vehicle? Because there again raises point that all electronics in the vehicle share the same ground.

Or are you saying that the multiple ground straps are whats causing the problem as it would ground the body to the frame in more than one place and that there is where the ground loop i being created?

Like I said I have multiple straps and dont have any problems.
