Hands Free Phone Static
I have a Pioneer head unit and am using this iSimple hands free calling AUX cable for my Samsung phone. It seems to work well and I have no static on my end, but the person I am talking to has tons of static. I believe it is alternator noise. They say it increases with speed or throttle. Has anyone else experienced a similar issue?

The phone does, but the stereo does not have that feature.
I checked ohms on the capacitor. One way reads 11 ohms and reversing the leads reads 76 ohms.

Good question. I do not have a vehicle with distributor ignition anymore to check.

Capacitors are rated in farads, ohms are of no value here.

I was told by an electrical engineer and an electrical technician that you can test a capacitor this way. I've been trying to find a friend with a meter than can measure capacitance and nobody seems to have one.

Unplug the capacitor, see if it gets any worse. You could also try getting a reasonable 100-200 uFd capacitor rated for something above 12VDC (40V is common) then use some jumper leads to see if the noise goes away.
