Speakers turn off when I turn on the lights

So I've got a 2013 shockwave 5th wheeler, and when I turn the lights on, the speakers turn off, but when I turn the lights off, the speakers turn back on. The stereo stays on the the entire time. Running on Solar power. When I'm parked at home, still on solar power, it works fine. But when I'm out camping, the lights start fighting with my speakers. Any ideas? Thanks!
  • are you hooked to the tow vehicle camping and not hooked to the vehicle at home? What about a water hose or tv cable at home? There must be something different at home.
  • Whatever it takes to turn off the obnoxious annoying speakers, I'm all for it.. :)
  • So they work at home on the same solar set up as when you are camping? Do you have a high end system with an amp that is not getting enough voltage.

    What is different between your home set up and camping set up?
  • LOL, sorry, I don't have a clue, but that's just pretty funny :-)
  • You have a bad ground. Most likely on the light circuit. It's back feeding through the speakers.
