Still getting the engine noise throuh my speakers

Well I've tried so many things to try and get rid of the high pitched noise that goes along with the engine. This only happens when I watch TV. I've tried switching ground points and relocating the actual modulator away from teh engine. Still no luck. The only thing I can think of which would cause this, is the fact that the FM modulator I have is not the normal kind, where you get the car antenna and stick it into the FM modulator, and form teh FM modulator there is an antenna wire which you connect to the radio. Mine doesnt have that, rather you place to switch to one fo 3 stations (87.7, 88.1, 89.1) and connect the power/ground wires and connect the audio rca's and it sends the signal through airwaves to the radio. Thats the only thing I can think of, I dont knwo what other way to get rid of this noise, its horrible, and really makes watching TV for the passengers a pain. I need help, what do I do, thanks

Well it only gives me 3 stations to choose from, one the radio doesnt get to (87.7) and the other two have the same problem, one mroe than the other, I chose the one with the least noise.

that radio should have a pioneer aux adapter that you can buy this way u wont have to use an fm modulator. you can plug the sound directly into the aux adapter and then when u want to watch tv, instead of turning to your tuner, u will just turn to aux on the headunit

Wow, thanks so much! You're correct, I do have that, I thought that was for cd-changer purposes only. Thanks!
