ground arching
hello all,
I recently finished installing my system, but I seem to have a major issue with grounding. No matter where i ground my amp (eclipse 4x100) it arches, and then gives the wonderful engine noise. I know I have good grounds, so my question is could it be the amp??

power is run separate from the other lines. My guess is its a ground loop. I get the typical engine noise when the ground to the amp is connected. When i disconnect the ground, the engine noise goes away.
