Lots of noise when using bluetooth with the 12V charger

[orangeblast22]

Today I picked up a bluetooth stereo receiver so I can stream Google Music wirelessly to my 2006. yay, finally....but sadly, I get all types of scratchy wine and noise when the car is on. It's because of the 12V car charger.

I found something called a Ground Loop Isolator that should remove the wine and terrible noise, but apparently it also decreases audio quality quite a bit.

What are my options then? Anyone know of a modification or a hack to remove the noise? Or should I just buy the filter? I also believe there was a TSB on this issue, but haven't found it.

Sounds like a bad install, could be a loose wiring on the harness. What else is installed?

Nothing. It's all stock. I pulled the center console to look at the wiring underneath the 12V car charger. Seems fine. Nothing out of the ordinary. What should I be looking for?

What brand and model is the radio you have now?

The JBL Synthesis system.

If you have the 115V ac outlet plug your charger into that. It should fix the issue.
