you really didnt do anything wrong per say. but your getting EMI. Do you have your RCA's and your power wire running next to each other? you get it normally from a large current source next to your signal wires and the electromagnetic field crosses over. when you turn down the radio. you have really stop sending a signal. (not turned it off) so you will play any light signal you are picking up from the EMI

yeah they are running right next to each other so i am just going to have to take it all apart and just run the RCA's a different way thanks alot for the info

the rule is power on one side rca's and everything else on another. or dowd the center if you would like.

you can get EMI from alot of things even the HU itself.
