Samsung Galaxy 4 7" Tablet install

[Shinare]

The wine DOES go away when I disconnect the charger. I bought a "ground loop isolator" for the 12v+ to the charger and put it between the 12v switched power and the charger.it didn't do anything. Not really skilled enough to make what you are saying.does that go in between the charger and the tablet?

The ground loop isolators typically don't help. For the filter you would connect the inductor between the car's power feed and the input to the power adapter. It installs in line with the positive wire. One capacitor would get connected between the positive and ground wires as they enter the power adapter. A 2000 uF capacitor would then get connected between the positive and ground wires to the tablet. The capacitors can be purchased from radioshack and should be 25V or 50V rated caps. When they are installed, make sure that the polarity is connected correctly (the caps will have a strip indicating the positive or negative lead of the cap. Make sure that it is connected to the respective power wire). Radio shack does not carry inductors, so I would try it initially with just the caps.
