Hi has anybody had interference on there TV and noise in speakers when on electric hook up. When we are on batteries we have no trouble.

Thanks Pat.

Hi,

it's probably coming from the battery charger - especially if it is an older model.

If the interference has only recently started the charger may have developed a fault.

Can you turn it off separately from everything else to check if the interference disappears ?

It might have its own switch or be supplied via a circuit breaker on the mains inlet panel.

If the interference has only recently started the charger may have developed a fault.

Other causes may be to do with how the TV etc gets its 12v power - could be a poor or missing earth (negative) connection.

Alan

Hi Alan
Thanks for that info somebody else said about battery charger turned it off and yep it stopped all interference. It's only 12 months old so took it back to dealers for them to sort out.
