FYI... my Shaker-1000 is making the same noise at no/very low volume.
My 2010 GT with Shaker1000 has the exact same issues with the volume at 0. I can still here the bass from the radio station and hissing if I am on a different input! Help!

ok, here's the deal. call ford and complain and make appointment to have car checked. the person i spoke to does not have a clue and can't tell me anything other than to take the car in to the dealer. have your VIN # handy' according to her they have no knowledge of any problems with the shaker 500 white noise with the volume down.
In two weeks I'm participating in a 2010 Ford Mustang focus group. I've been told I'll spend two hours with several Ford engineers to discuss any issues I've had with my car. I'll definitely bring this up.

not to beat a dead horse here but i have 2009 with shaker 1000 and have been back twice for that noise in the front subs. the dealer did the tsb for the clutch but couldnt hear the noise in the speakers. go figure.

As the OP, I just changed the first post to try to get some more useful replies here. I put that request here also:
2010 SHAKER 500/1000 CLARION STEREO DEFECT
1. Apparently EVERY SINGLE 2010 Shaker 500 without the nav package has a bad noise in the speakers. And possibly the Shaker 1000. We can only guess that models coming off the line today do not have it. We think, but do not know, a fix was made with some Job2 Mustangs which started coming out around mid August.
2. The Clarion ACM is suspected to be the culprit. (This is not a loose wire.)
The noise can be faint, you probably won't hear it while driving with the stereo blasting. But if you listen to: news; sports; or talk radio at low volume while parked with the engine off (drive in, picking up someone, etc.) it is very annoying.
Best way to FIRST hear the noise: Sit parked with engine off in a quiet spot with radio on. While listening, turn the volume down to 1 bar, then 0 bar, then turn radio off and on a few times and move volume from 0-2 bars and you can't miss it. Turn volume above 3 bars and it is covered up. But once you hear it, you will still hear it at higher volumes between songs and between spoken words.
WHAT YOU CAN DO NOW
If you have or don't have the noise you can help.
Get your non nav identification code:
a. Turn the radio on and put it on an AM or FM channel.
b. Press 3 and 6 simultaneously.
c. Before it stops testing the speakers press 6.
d. Then press the UP button and you see the reference code.
I have: AR3T - 19C 158 - AL
A Job2 ACM will probably have a different code, possibly the "AL" will change.
Please report your code, whether you do or don't have the noise, and when your 2010 Mustang was built.
Thanks,
Tomz
