Question NEED HELP!!! I am getting feedback from my invertor

Today I connected my "rca to IP-Bus interconnector" to my head unit's aux port and when I turn on my invertor that supplies power to my xbox I get feedback when operating the HU in aux mode. I have the a/v from the xbox going into an a/v switch and I get the same feedback whether the a/v switch is switched to xbox or not. As a matter of fact the xbox does not even have to be on to get the feedback, but like I said only when I turn on the invertor. Any ideas?

plug in devices one at a time till you get the noise. thatll locate the source. if its inverter based, and not interferrance based, try regrounding, or ground cleaning

I was thinking the inverter was causing the interference. Could that be the case? Like I said it only happens in aux mode on my HU and the invertor is switched on. The only source is my xbox, so the inverter has to be on to supply power to the xbox. Please let me know if you are not understanding me or if I am not understanding you. I really want to get this figured out. Thanks a lot for your help.

I'm just saying that if the source is the inverter, then either the problem is the inverter itself, or a dirty ground or dirty power. you can try power noise blockers on the positive line, or you can try regrounding the unit to a placve you know is a clean ground, or it might just be the unit itself.

I just figure a new ground or noise blocker will be lots cheaper than a new inverter, is all.
