Ok so I haven't been on here for a while but I can't seem to find an answer to my question anywhere and really need some help!
So I not only am an electronics hobbies but I have fun installing car audio systems as well. The problem I am running into is that I would like to run an alt wire through my engine bay that would be zip tied to the same leads giving signal to my injectors and ignition coils, this 1/0 wire will be carrying at times over 200A and will be mere millimeters from these signal wires. I am worried that the magnetic field put off will in turn cause interference to my vehicles electricals given that they are at such close proximity.
BUT!
After looking through my engine bay I found that the stock alt wire is literally in the same loom as the signal wires I am worried about. So I imagine it would be fine but I need to know for sure.
Would the magnetic field of 200A through 1/0 fire interfere with ignition coils or injectors only millimeters away?
I appreciate any help! :)
