I was posting a bit about this in the wrong area.
I just recently got my 92 LS back from getting some extensive bodywork done. While it was sitting at the shop for over a year, I had removed my after-market stereo to sell it for some extra cash.
Just got the car back earlier this week and put a factory Bose system back in it. This included a new amp and headunit which I had purchased on Ebay a little while back.
So I get everything wired up, turn it on and get this high pitched, steady beep. I was calling it feedback at first, but it sounds more like a beep steady and high pitched rather than feedback, which I would imagine more wavy.
The sound is apparently eminating almost completely from the rear driver side 6x9. I figured this out by first unplugging the amp plug to the rear speakers, and then even singling out the driver side, by just unplugging that. With that speaker unplug the sound is almost gone.
One thing I just noticed is that the headunit I got is a 2200 series, which is for the 93 L's and up I believe, whereas I'm pretty sure my original headunit was a 2100 series.
I'm wondering if the 2200 unit is not compatible with my car set up for the 2100 unit? The different series are not compatilbe with the amp?
I even managed to re-wire (since it had been wired for bypass) my ORIGINAL amp, and the same thing occurs, which is what is now making me think its the headunit which is at fault.
Any advice or ideas would be greatly appreciated. I've checked and rechecked grounds, speakers (except the front), amps, etc. I'm at my wits end here and am seriously contemplating taking the car to the stealership!!! That's how desperate I'm getting.
If anyone shows interest, or thinks it might help, I was thinking of capturing the sound on my cell phones video camera and posting it on U-Tube and providing a link.
PLEASE HELP ME!!! I MISS MY BABY, JUST GOT HER BACK, AND HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO ENJOY HER WITHOUT A STEREO!!!

. I had the same problem and now theres a 95-98 radio from a TL in my car. It works just fine. Down side is that I can't use the steering wheel controls, but I do have an in dash CD player though!:yes:
