    george graves dimmer relay question

    Just installed the new relay in my car, but it makes a high pitched humming noise whenever it dims. Anyone have this issue or know why it might be happening? It didn't happen at first, then I turned on the stereo and it's been happening ever since...

    It sounds like you have a bad ground somewhere

          They all make this noise..... Learn to love it or surround the relay box with sound deadner ...

          My gf says she like the noise so that she knows when the lights are dimming...

            Fucker pisses me off. I worked on his can TWICE and somehow he forgot to mention a HUGE pile of parts...that I need.

            Knowing him, they were in great shape, too.

            I had a spare sub box WITH ME and could have made his trunk sweet.

            Also, the bastard has an arm rest rear seat, so the damn thing would have sounded great.
