My radio will switch fm am cd player without touching anything. It will go back and forth between each source. Volume control is not working properly on my steering wheel but all the climate stuff does. What the issue could be?
View 11 RepliesI have a 2002 Lexus ES330 and in the recent past, the audio is not working when I switch on the radio or the CD player. It takes a while and starts suddenly and sometimes, stops in between. How to resolve this problem?
View 2 RepliesI have a 2008 F150 4 door 5.4 V8. It's your standard F150. Power Steering, Power Brakes, Radio/CD Player and A/C. It has just a little over 120 thousand miles on it. Until now I haven't had any problems with it. About a week ago I got in and cranked the truck and radio, clock didn't come on. I thought it was turned off so I pushed the button a couple of times with no results.
That evening I checked the fuse and the fuse wasn't blown but I checked it anyway and it was good. But I still replaced it with a new fuse that I checked to make sure it was good and the result was the same. No radio or clock. I have been told that there's another fuse behind the radio that could be blown. So here's my questions. First is there another fuse behind the radio. Second is how do you get the radio out and the third question is can you buy a refurbished one and if so where and what would the cost be. Or could it be something else.
My wife went to start up her 2006 GX470 and there was no sound from the radio or CD player.
All the lights and buttons seem to be working properly but no sound at all. I suspect it may be the amplifier.
I checked the fuses under the hood and radio 1 and radio 2 seem to be okay. Is there anyway to check if the radio is and or the amplifier the issue?
My second question is it worth buying just the factory radio/amp or is it better to upgrade the radio and amplifier?
Are there plug and play wiring harnesses so I don't have to splice the wires? It is again a 2006 Gx470 with Navigation without Mark Levinson and with rear entertainment system.
First, the Touareg navigation radio has two AUX inputs, plus a telephone audio input. One AUX input is an AUDIO/VIDEO input. The other is an AUDIO only input. Below is a photo of two Dietz cables connected to the two different AUX inputs:
How to actually connect these cables and what parts are required would be too lengthy a post for this thread. So if you want to know these details, click on the link shown in my signature below.
i have a xl truck that i just got for work. I am wondering if it is possible to change the radio from it to my old cd 6 that i have in my personal truck. I know on the older models you can switch to a ford radio with a cd player but not a cd 6 but I don't know if it's possible on this model or not.
View 1 RepliesActually it does eventually but you never know when it is ready to eject so I am afraid to use it anymore.
View 1 RepliesIn my 2000 Ex the player ejects sometimes but sometimes it will if I wait a couple days and try it again so I am afraid to use it.
View 3 RepliesIn my radio/cd player, the cds start ejecting on their own, no command to do so, the screen starts displaying junk.
View 1 RepliesI have a 2000 Malibu, with the original radio, and I'd like to hook up my MP3 player to it. I know that I could get something to hook up to the MP3 player that would broadcast over an unused FM frequency and play it that way. But I've been in other people's cars who did that, and it lost a lot of quality that way. Any way for me to wire something up to the radio that would let me plug my MP3 into it, either with a USB cable, or even a plug like the plug on my ear buds? If so, how would I do it?
View 1 RepliesMy wife has a 2007 Azera. Battery died a couple of days ago, so got it checked, and found it had a dead cell. Bought a new battery, same as one previously in it, installed and car fired up every time since. Because battery was replaced, the radio stopped working. She tried some thing she had recalled where you hold down 2 buttons on the radio to eject all the CD's (hers has the Infinity 6-disc stereo), but now all the radio says is "Ejecting All". This is in spite of the fact that it has ejected nothing (yet), and the radio will not work at all. The only thing that happens when oyu turn on the radio is you see this message.
View 2 RepliesI have a 2005 Volvo V50.The radio and CD changer will not come on when you push on. There is no display for the radio & CD player. There is dispaly for the heating & cooling systems. The speaker settings have dispaly. It is not a fuse. I had them checked. I just got up one morning and it would not work.

View 8 RepliesRecently bought this used 07 model in June of this year. Was enjoying the drive till the cd player ate the cd. Power and eject buttons no longer work, including Scan, Seek, Track buttons. Only the volume and tuner dial works, plus all steering mounted controls for audio. The only way to "turn off" the radio and cd is to toggle it to Aux. Is this deck pretty much shot?
View 3 RepliesMy wonderful three year old put a penny into the CD player. First it played, then it stopped and we got weird loud popping noises, even with the volume off. Now the radio/CD player is off and can't be turned on.
It seems like a good time to upgrade, but what should I be looking for as far as no power to the audio?
Fuse?
I know nothing about this stuff.
Yesterday, I went to charge a friend's GPS in my 2008 Toyota Corolla. I discovered that a dime was stuck in the charging port (but why, by the way). I had to use a pen to carefully get the dime out, but in the process, I shorted out the car radio/CD player, clock, and the charging port. Everything else electrical works. How can I fix this problem?
View 1 RepliesMy stereo say "MP3" on it's face. My manual says nothing about MP3's though. How do I play an iPod in my truck? I do not have a cassette deck either...so that method won't work. 2005 F150 ....
View 6 RepliesSo I am receiving this notification when I turn my switch on to just have my radio on. I don't have a reason to believe that the battery is bad as I just bought the truck from a dealer last Thursday. Searches come up it is a known glitch in the safety feature that cannot be disabled and is happening with good batteries.

View 2 RepliesMy ride 2000 excursion limited v-10 4.10 gears. Now here is the issue when I press the o/d button it kicks down right so far so good! Then i press it again and nothing it wont return to o/d that is unless i lift off the gas. The light turns on and off as it should it just won't reengage o/d with out me lifting?
Shifts fine any other time for example if i am climbing a hill and it kicks to 3rd upon cresting said hill it will shift back to overdrive as it should. It is hard to move the shifter and i have read about the switch on the tranny also read about the wires getting worn through in the column but, as the light goes on and of respectively i fear this is not the case.
My friend told me my trans is shot and it does have 200,000 miles but shifts fine as long as i dont touch the button. I am going to try to take the steering column apart soon and take a peak but it is -15 out right now and yeah that just gonna have to warm up a touch first! In the mean time i will keep reading trying to figure it out! Don't tell me my trans is shot
