When i plug in my car ionizer in the lighter socket and press the on button, my clock in the HU starts to grow all these vines and black lines and it looks like the matrix language stuff. It grows steadily. When I unplug the car ionizer those matrix/computer language lines start to go away slowly until the clock in the HU is completely clear and back to normal.
Does anyone know why this is happening?

wtf are you talking about?? :wtf:
if the thing you are plugging in gives off some crazy large electrical field it could be causing interference

you have to see this...its like this crazy matrix/weird lines start growing and spreading all over the clock display in the HU.
This only happens when i plug in the car ionizer which is 12v. Anyone else know ?

did a little googling and this is definitely your problem

front.* That's plenty of negative ions for inside a vehicle
taken from here:
linky
its causing soo much interference that it is messing up the lcd screen. kinda like how a cell phone screws up your speakers.

wow.......so aside from the interference messing up the lcd screen....will it blow a fuse or damage the ionizer or the car itself?

my advice if you still wanna use this thing, get one of those socket extension cords and move it away from your radio

It's obvious that your ionizer creates a disturbance in the space-time continuum.

ahaha that's funny it will do the same thing to flourecent tubes and CRT displays.
the coatings on all these things react when hit with electrons... like from a magnetic field like the one used to ionize the air in your ionizer :)
