adapter that enables bose to work with my aftermarket HU whirring?

[jnash123]

I have earthed everything known to man in my car, is it possible that it could be the actual connector?

doing my head in!

mate what are you asking? this doesn't really make much sense

 

[jnash123]

sorry, rushed this a bit!

i have a aftermarket head unit with the lead that allows it to use the Bose system in the car. im getting alternator whine. could it be worth replacing the actual adapter?

I replaced the standard HU with a pioneer one over a year ago but never had any issues with popping or whine noises. Did you get the right adaptor?
have a look through these and there is also a link to the connects2 adapter that is said to work:

Even Halfords used to do them so expect they still do. just a few pence.
