I think I'm going to try and use the Arc audio noise gate.

Interesting. Here is a thread from someone else who had the same issue as you.

Seems that didnt help his issue. I guess I may have to buy the dash kit that is suppose to be released this month and put a double din in.

Heres an little update. The 363 is getting sent back tomorrow. I also have a new set of components coming since my tweeters fried the other day. I think Im going to mount my tweeters back in the doors beside the woofers. Also going to order some long rcas and some line output converters.

Had a chance today to poke around again. I ran power wire outside truck....no dice. For kicks I pulled the panels to check my power cable and in doing so had to unplug a module under passenger side foot well for access. When unplugged the static stopped but so did everything else interior related ie lights, locks, dash and radio. I tried grounding the case of the module to the battery but still had static. I am beginning to think this can't be beat and may be more related to the base stereo 4.2LCD trucks. I tried an LOC instead of using high levels and still had static.

For now I turned my gain down a hair now just under 1/4 and the static is almost non existent unless its really quiet or I put my ear on the door speaker. I plan on upgrading the door speakers soon and will have to revisit this when the gain needs to come up again.

Any progress on your noise issue? I'm having the same exact problem with the following setup...

2016 F150 XLT 8" screen/NAV/Non-Sony
Parrott Harness
Alpine KTP-445U


I tried all the same troubleshooting steps as you guys with the same results. I removed the amp and went back to the OEM setup, only to find that I could still hear noise if I put my ears to the speakers. Took the truck to the dealership yesterday, and they said they can hear the static but there is nothing they can do about it.

He doesnt have it any more...lol he finally took my advice and replaced a few components and the noise is all but gone. What you are talking about is common. This factory system is not mouse quiet. Too much interference.
