Gen 3 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: Satellite Radio Fades In And Out

Every now and then, my satellite radio fades in and out. I cannot pin it on rain as it sometimes happens when it is clear. I can hear programming, but only 1 second samples, with fuzz for a second then again, 1 second of programming.

Toyota - Avalon :: Radio Fades In And Out Constantly

I have a 2014 Avalon Limited and love the car a great deal. I have subscribed to the Sirius Satellite radio and it's been nothing but a pain in the butt since day one . It fades in and out constantly. If I get five min. with out this happening that would be a long time . Called service and the guy told me this is a big problem with this car .... told me there were not enough towers?

Do you think it is the car or is there a problem with the Avalon and satellite reception?

Saturn - Sc :: 1993 - A/C Malfunction - Air Flow Fades Away After An Hour

I have a 1993 Saturn SC1 with 200K miles and two problems. I can run the AC on a hot day for nearly an hour, then the air flow fades away even though I can hear the fan still running. If I turn it off for a while, I can then turn it on again, and it runs fine for a while but then fades again. On a cold, rainy day, even though the fan blows fine out the dashboard vents toward me and my passenger, there isn't enough air blowing out of the vents below the windshield, which fogs up so I can't see.

Ford Excursion :: 2003 V10 - Brake Pedal Fades Away

I have a 2003 Eddie Bauer with the v10, the problem I am having is at random times the brake peddle will just fade away. It doesn't go all the way to the floor but pretty close. I had the master cylinder replaced and that did not fix it. I took it back in and had them bleed the entire system along with the analoc system, they tested the analoc system and said that was not the problem. Brakes did fine for about a week and has now started to fade away again.

I have a 96' Ranger 4.0 5 speed. While driving, if I put the truck under a load such as going uphill or towing, the air conditioner fades out and blows warm air. Once I start downhill the air will come back on. It is much worse when towing.

Camry :: When Car Starts White Thin Smoke Comes Out Of Tailpipe And Then Fades Away

I have a 2004 solara and I wanted to know what are some signs of a blown head gasket. My car doesn't overheat, there's no milky color in my oil and my coolant hasn't gone down or leaked. Reason why I think I have a blown head gasket is sometimes when I start my car (first start of the day) white thin smoke comes out of the tailpipe and then fades away. There's no smoke when I drive or rev the engine. I've had a few people tell me it's a blown gasket.

Camry :: Solara 2006 - Audio Fades In And Out / Defective Switch

My audio fades in and out, Solara 2006 convertible. This is caused by defective switch - when the top comes down, it activates a switch to increase the audio volume to compensate for the increase noise from the wind.

How do I remove the right rear inside side panel? The switch is back there. I figured out how to remove the rear seat, I just can't figure out how to remove the side panel?

Kia - Optima :: Headlights Flickering - All Lights Fades Out On Pressing Brakes

I have a 2002 Kia Optima. The headlights have been flickering as well as every light inside the car. When they're doing this, if I press on the brakes, everything fades out. Such as the radio, headlights get very dim, air conditioner fades out. The car almost comes to the point of stalling. I've had the alternator replaced but the problem continued. I have asked several mechanics but they are baffled.

Pickup - Chevrolet :: 1973 - While Driving Away From Stops / On Highway Power Fades?

My father passed down his 1973 Chevy C-10 pickup truck to me and my family. It's been our 'runner' truck for many years going to the mountains for wood, lumber from the store, garbage and yard debris...etc. Unfortunately, it recently has been starting and warming up just fine, but once it's running as I'm driving away from stops or even holding speed on the highway the power 'fades' from the engine and it lugs like it is in gear, but flooded and lurches as the engine seems to 'catch up'. I have replaced the carb(holly quadrajet), fuel pump, fuel filters, battery, fuel lines, throttle cable, distributor cap (ceramic piece too), alternator and more...we still can't get it figured out. NOW the truck won't start or turn over - have we reached the end of it's life no matter what we do? What is left to replace? I don't think we can afford much more $ to fix it. We also found that somehow water was in the gas tank, which we think was from a kid in the neighborhood messing around. Could that have made a permanent issue?

Ford F-150 (2009-2014) :: 2012 - Driver Side Speaker Fades In And Out

So, I'm still getting used to this 2012 F150 and have been experiencing issues with the driver's side speaker fading out for 5-10 seconds and then fading back in. I was getting worried that the radio was defective or something. Well, it is actually working as DESIGNED. Not that I like the design!

Okay, what is happening is that the NAV system periodically has something to say. Most frequently the message is "GPS Signal Lost". It appears that when the NAV system speaks it fades out the radio on the driver's side only, plays the message, and then fades the radio back in.

The volume on the NAV system app was turned ALL THE WAY DOWN so it was going through the motions of delivering a message, but no message was delivered since the volume was set at zero.

i just need to make it stop saying "You are over the speed limit!" all the time... Also, how to make it stop turning down the volume on my cell phone conversations when I put the truck in reverse? I back out of a parking space and have to ask the person I'm speaking to if they are still there???

Prius (2004-09) :: 2004 - Driver Side Brake Led Stopped Working

Prius 2004 with 86K miles. My brake led light on the driver side stopped working completely the other day. For some time now (6 months) i knew the top led of the brake light was not working, but yesterday I discovered that the whole led is failing. tail and parking light on the same assembly are working fine. I pulled off the plastic door inside the trunk and I checked connections for faulty ones but everything was tight in its place. Is there anything else I can do before preparing to go to the "butcher" dealer?

Prius (2004-09) :: 2004 - Red Triangle Came On After Changing 12V Battery

I have a 2004 Prius, the Red triangle came on intermittently and went off so I changed the 12V battery last night, after changing it the red warning light went off and everything seemed okay. Today while driving, the warning light came back on. I checked the battery voltage via diagnostic mode on the cars computer and the specs are what they should be. I noticed the following error codes in the computer:

01-D5, Sub-code: 190-30-8
01-DC, Sub-code: 190-B7-8
01-DC, Sub-code: 1C6-4D-F

Not sure if these are what is causing the problem.

Prius (2004-09) :: Only Getting 24.9 MPG?

I just got my Prius and made the test drive around the city. On my consumption screen, within 19 miles, I get only 24.9 MPG.

Does this normal for short distance driving? I heard some people got 40+ MPG or 50+ MPG.

Do I have to make longer drive in order to see the impact?

Prius (Gen 2) Fuel :: 2004 - MFD Went Out

I have a 2004 prius and my MFD recently went out. So I decided to go looking for a good MPG app for my iphone since I could no longer use the car's built in feature.

I really don't like the native apps that just keep the data confined to the phone and I find emailing my data around and having to do things in a spreadsheet to be painful.

I want my data all online, but the app to be native, so it's snappy and responsive.
