Prius (2004-09) :: Radio Turn On / Off But Screen Doesn't Display It

I noticed today shortly before turning off the car that the screen was lagging. Sometimes there was not even response. Radio turned on and off ok, but screen was not showing it. It would then display (after several seconds) the info, display, and audio. However, when I clicked the Climate one, the MFD said, "Check the condition to the air conditioner." However, when I used the driver's controls, it worked okay.

I then turned off the car, and when I turned it back on, everything appeared to be normal. The screen was significantly lagging.

Might this be an issue with the air conditioning itself. I mostly run the A/C on full blast on the MAX cold (sometimes Auto (LO temp, HI fan)). Temperature in the output vent (left center one) after 5-10 minutes: 48 degrees moving. Outside temperature between 100 and 110, so it's pretty hot too.

Prius V (Audio/Electronics) :: Nav Screen Can Be Changed To Radio Screen?

I can change my nav system radio for just a radio? I am not smart enough to make the nav work and the light from the backup camera wipes out my night vision.

Golf V R32 :: Radio Won't Turn Off And Car Won't Lock

Drove the R32 last night for the first time in about a week with no problems, so I figured I would drive it to work today since the roads are still clear.

Got to work, car shuts off like normal. No problems. Drove over to our other facility, turn off the ignition, and the radio stays on when I take the key out. Open the door, radio still stays on and I get the door ajar chime. Close door, start car again, drive around the parking lot, turn car off, same thing. Also, the key fob now has no function at all. I can't lock or unlock the car.

Should I just call a dealer/mechanic? This wouldn't be a huge issue if the car was at home, but it's currently sitting outside, unlocked, in downtown Detroit, and I really don't want the battery to die.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2000 - Radio Won't Turn Off

I have a 2000 Jetta TDI, with an aftermarket radio, which was professionally installed about 3 years ago. never given me problems till recent.

After driving i turn off car and all is normal, except frequently i can come back within an hour or two and find that the radio illumination is on, and that i can no longer turn the radio on (with or without key turned on). i also cannot turn off the radio. i say turn off because while it is in this odd mode i can plug in my iphone and it will charge and play music as if through headphones, it is also powering up my amp while in this mode. If i pull fuse 42 it resets and all is good.

I have not noticed any problems while driving or when radio is ON normal

I have swapped out the radio with another identical radio and it is still doing the exact same thing.

Golf VI R :: Radio Doesn't Shut Off When Turn Off The Engine

So, I decided to re-code the car such that the radio does not shut off when I turn off the engine (KESSY) but rather when I open the door to get out. It's accomplished by recording the instrument cluster to think it's a UK cluster. Well, when I did that the area that usually displays the outside temp is displaying my speed in KPH. I changed the coding back to US and it didn't work. The temp is displayed if I choose to have the car stats displayed like miles till empty and such but that's not usually what I have displayed. Funnily enough, I do like knowing what the outside temp is.

Golf/GTI VI :: Radio Starts Autoplaying Every Time Turn On The Car

I have my disc changer loaded, but each time I get into the car, the vehicle starts playing the last disc that was playing - even if I had another input selected.

I usually run music/waze through my iPhone during my commute, but when I get back into the car to go home, boom: music from disc starts blaring.

Is there a fix? I've looked through the menus and haven't found anything about CDs autoplaying. The easiest fix is probably going to be just to remove all of my CDs, but I was just curious if I was overlooking something.

Golf VI R :: How To Turn Off Satellite Radio And Other R Sound System

Just bought a new R with the premium sound system and can't figure out how to disable the lame satellite radio. I am fortunate that Seattle has great local radio stations but have had to listen to BS satellite radio or my IPhone. I tried to follow the useless manual instructions to no avail. How to shut it off and enable real radio stations?

Also I am wondering what upgrades people have done on their stereo systems? The system sounds OK but having worked in a car stereo shop in the past I am a bit picky. What brand the stock speakers are and what brand and size aftermarket can be installed without weilding a nibbler or jig saw? Does the stock radio have RCA or other low power outputs to run an external Amp?

Golf/GTI VII :: How To Mute / Turn Off Radio For Discover Pro With Navi

I am having come from owning a stream of Hondas and Toyotas where one could separately turn off radio whilst using navigation, I was wondering if there was something similar for the Discover Pro system with Navigation on my GTI. Is turning the volume knob all the way down the only way to mute? I know that the non-navi Discover Pro systems have a convenient Mute button where the Navi button normally is for the systems equipped with navigation. I feel like there would be a simple solution for such a simple task.....

Golf IV R32 :: Electrical Malfunctions - When Hit A Bump Or Pothole Radio Would Shut Off And Then Turn Back On

I have been having some electrical problems lately that seem to be getting worse. For the past few months sometimes when i hit a bump or pothole my radio would shut off and then turn back on. Well I never got around to looking at it cause i would forget about it until it did it again. so just a couple of days ago im coming into my driveway, hit the bump, and my car shuts off. Not like a stall, just no electricity. I was thinking i need a new battery because my lights flicker and dim when i hit my window button, or when I am just sitting at a light, sometimes my dash lights will flicker. But now I am thinking maybe I have a bad ground or something.

Lexus RC F 2015+ :: Radio / NAV Screen Keeps Resetting

This morning I got in my car and pulled out of my driveway like normal. SAT Radio playing, everything good. After about 10 min I stopped at McDonald's to get some breakfast and turned the car off. When I come back to my car and start it, it starts normal, SAT radio playing.

After about 30 seconds the screen goes blank and the system resets itself, music stops. The screen turns back on and shows the Lexus "Welcome" screen as if I just started the car. About every 15 - 20 seconds after that it keeps doing the same thing. I tried shutting the car off and restarting it, hoping maybe it would reset the system and nothing, same issue. I had to drive to work with the screen and radio resetting itself every 15 - 20 seconds, very annoying.

Any simple fix before I have to take it to the dealer? I know all the updates and downloads available for the car and NAV system have been done so I'm not sure what could be causing this? Everything else in the car works fine and has not been affected by this, even the backup camera works fine.

Corolla / Matrix 2009-13 :: Radio Does Not Lighting Up - Screen Lit When Car Is On

I recently purchased a 2009 Corolla LE. I noticed that at night, my radio does NOT light up. However, when the car is in the 'on' or during the day, the radio screen is lit. I just know this can't be right. Is there something I can do to fix this backward problem? Or do I need to take it in?

Prius V (Audio/Electronics) :: How To Leave Nav Screen Set To The Radio

I have a Prius v five ATP, my wife asked if its possible to leave the screen set to the radio. I haven't figured how to do this yet. I usually have the trip info displayed, but if I hit the radio button it brings up the usual screen displaying the radio info for a minute or so (or however much time that she's changing the stations) but then switches back to the previous screen.

Is there a way to set the radio as a default so it doesn't switch back to the previous screen? Or use the split screen function for this?

Lexus IS 2014+ :: Radio Swap Due To Nav Screen Flashing

I had my radio swapped by the dealer last night due to an issue with the navigation screen restarting while driving an randomly blinking / flashing blue or white. However today the blinking / flashing came back just minutes after picking the car up from the dealer and again this morning while driving to work.

Just out of curiosity is the radio different in a Mark Levinson car or is it only the speakers, sub etc. that distinguishes the sound?
