Default Radio interference

Got a new on for me here, I have installed a Kenwood DMX 4707 headunit along with all new LED lights and a hyperflash harness. Now, when I am listening to the radio and I turn on the turn signal I am getting interference in time to the turn signal flashing. Any thoughts as to how to eliminate the interference. Also, since I installed the Kenwood, my radio reception flat out sucks. Anybody else had this issue?

Ferrite core around the wire bundle may help. Changing the poor quality LED might also help but it will take some testing to figure out which one(s) are causing the issue. The good thing is it's likely one of the turn signal bulbs so that narrows it down to about four. Try pulling them one at a time, see if you notice a change.

All the LED bulbs are from SharpLight Innovations, so I didn't cheap out on Amazon bulbs. I will try pulling bulbs to see if I can figure out the offending party.

A call or email to them would be one of my first steps. Seems likely they have solved this issue for other customers.
