Lexus SC430 :: Radio Cuts Off Randomly When Cranked Up High
If i have the radio volume up fairly high, it will keep cutting off for a few seconds then come back on. then cut off again etc....
I presume the amp is getting hot and causing this, am I right? And would I need another amp, or maybe there is a fan in the amp not working? Or am I not even close? Its pretty annoying when that good song comes on and it cuts out.
Its not the actual radio that cuts off, its the sound from the speakers.
Lexus GX 2004-09 :: GX470 Radio Volume Cannot Be Raised Or Lowered
It's a weird issue. Randomly the radio's volume can not be raised or lowered. Usually this is at first time you start the truck no matter cold or hot. When this happened last time i clicked on the button that says sound. It brings you to the screen to change fade and balance and it was all darked out that you couldn't tap on it. After two minutes or even less it started to work. I'm thinking the original amp is the issue but others tell me its the radio.

View 9 RepliesTouareg :: 2004 - Radio Cuts Out Sometimes
bring my 04 V8 in for second service in two weeks to fix the same two problems, (i) low voltage error messages in MFI, including AC off, Electrics Off and Fault Running Gear, and (ii) fix the keyless entry. So for, item i is fixed. Item ii is not and it's going back next week again. Further, they were supposed to take one of my two keys and replace it with a new one since the key I use was giving me an error message that read "key not present." So, they coded the new one and instead of coding my wifes key, they send hers back for warranty replacement and gave me the same dead one back.
Here's the new one. I'm driving home from work tonight, radio on a great tune, and I turn on the rear defroster. Guess what, the radio cuts out. Soon as I turn it off, the radio works again. On all stations, although some have more static than others. What gives??? Never had this problem in 4 years of ownership. It's like the ole gal knows she's going back in 8 weeks and is being replaced by an '08 T2 and she's revolting.

2004 GX 470 Mark Levinson with Nav.
Wife said she heard a 'pop' on the way home from work last night and thought she blew a tire or ran over something. Nothing in the road and tires fine so she continues home. Temperatures were near zero last night.
Upon start up today, the speakers were at full volume roar with the audio off.
Turning the audio on, only changed the pitch, not the level.
I tried cycle the audio on / off but no change. Restarted car, same thing.
Let the car sit a while and restarted it to check the system codes. Same noise for a few seconds, then a sort of 'pop' and the noise stops. Radio/ CD work fine now.
I checked the system and all shows OK. It is not drivable with the roar (if it comes back).
Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Stereo Volume Stopped - Appears To Be Reset
When I started the gx up today I couldn't get the volume to go up or down, not on the steering wheel. I turned the stereo off and on several times throughout my ride to work but it didn't change. Then when I got to work, turned off the vehicle and turned it back on, it worked. It's like it got glitchy and needed to be reset.
View 4 RepliesLexus RX 2004-09 :: How To Reduce Beep Volume When Opening Rear Hatch
I was busy playing with my license plate lights over the weekend and came across how to reduce the beep volume when opening the rear hatch when using the remote or indash power door button. I'm not sure if this has been discovered before but thought I would post in case no one knows about it.
I have done this mod on my car and I haven't had any adverse effects and everything works perfectlyfine (no new lights, errors or anything else). It doesn't get rid of the noise, but it does reduce it down to the same volume as when you unlock/lock your car. Open your rear power door
Carefully pry away the bottom section of the interior panel of the rear door (this will be the side furthest away from the rear window glass). The trim is held in place by plastic clips that will pop out. A gentle but firm tug will remove the first one and the rest will just follow as you work your way around.
Once this is open look on the end side of the door. You will notice a black box with one end being rounded. There will be a plug that fits into this. Remove the plug and stow away. I stowed mine back behind the part of the loom it extends from to keep it out the way
Put the trim back and enjoy that annoying beep now being a lot quieter. The rest of the beep is at the front of the car and looks to hide somewhere underneath the shroud of the wiper blades where the front struts sit. It looks to be from the same area as the speaker for the alarm, so probably won't be able to completely kill the noise.
Passat (B6) :: Radio Volume Fade Up And Down
My radio in the B6 seems to be acting strange...... I'll have the volume at a set level and it will fade up and down, like the volume is being ever so slightly raised and lowered. I thought at first it was some sort of speed-volume control but it fades up and down for no apparent reason. I have the in dash 6-cd changer with the XM built in.

Whenever I turn my car off with the radio on, then turn the car back on, the radio is never at the same volume. It is normally quite louder than I would like when just sitting down and getting situated. This is petty, and my only quip with the car. Just curious if they are all like this. I didnt find anything in the manual, and I know I can contact my dealer, but I thought I would ask here first, we are the ones that drive these cars everyday.

2011 Limited with Navigation .... Supposedly a 360 or 380 watt stereo.
When streaming from my phone, it's great, using Sirus/XM, it's terrible. I called Sirus/XM, no luck there. I've asked the dealer about it several times over the last 3 years, no luck.
Has any found if there are Line Level input settings hidden that can be adjusted? Since it's loud enough when Streaming, that seems to be the issue. I really don't want to buy an amp, etc. I'd be happy with the volume level I get when streaming if it was that loud with Sirus/XM...
Passat (B7) :: Radio Volume Would Not Work During Driving
We had to replace our radio and the new one the volume would not work just driving down the road. Dealer has been great in working with us, got us a second new radio and it is having the same issue. Also the second new radio will not change FM/AM stations, doesn't matter which station you switch too it stays on the first station when you originally turn on the car.
View 1 RepliesMitsubishi - Montero :: Radio Changes Volume By Itself While Moving
We have a 2007 Mitsubishi Pajero (not sure the current equivalent in US, it used to be the Montero but I think they have since discontinued it). It's a great car. One rather annoying issue we are having with it at the moment...
The radio changes volume by itself. It goes up, it goes down, all on it's own without any input from us. Here are some observations:
- Only happens when the car is in motion, at a stand-still it is fine.
- Only happens when listening to radio, not CD player or DVD player.
The car does not have a "knob" for the volume, it is just buttons (rules out potentiometer thingy)
There are steering wheel controls, but the fact that the volume changes only happen when listening to the radio, and not CD, make me believe it's not those. Same with speed-sensitive volume controls. We have turned those off in the settings and it still does the same. Even with them on or off, the CD volume works as expected.
Santa Fe (DM - 2013+) :: Radio Stuck At Low Volume
I could barely hear the radio and the volume was not working. A couple of days later, the display screen (GPS, Radio, ...) would not come off after I turned car engine off. The battery discharged as a result. When attempting to start the car, lots of clicks were coming off the fuse box under the hood.
My solution: I removed the negative on battery and put it back; now everything is back to normal.

My wives 2006 Passat, with stock radio, has an issue where the default stero level is too high. I've gone into the options and tried to turn down the starting volume, but it won't go down, only up. Is their someway to reset the stero back to default original settings or something? It's really startling at night when you hit the key and something is that loud!
View 10 RepliesCamry :: 2009 LE - Factory Radio Adjusts Volume On Its Own
I have an 09 Camry LE. When driving, the volume is consistent until I begin braking. It then lowers the volume itself. When I accelerate, it ramps back up.
Also on the highway, the bass is excessive. I usually turn it down to -1 or -2 depending on the track. The car is completely stock. I've had the car for a few weeks now.
This is the only factor that may lead to me replacing the stock radio. I don't want too, but if this problem can be solved by that, than I will.
