Emperor Ming Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Hi guys I have a standard factory fitted double din radio fitted that has picked up a strange and annoying trait. When I turn it on it finds the channel that I last left it on - or at least that is what the display says - but all I get is hiss as if it is off channel. Sometimes it rectifies itself and other times I have to tell it to select another channel, sometimes more than once, before it works. Once it has sorted itself it can be used normally until I turn it off! Is the radio goosed? If so can it be fixed? If not does anyone have a standard radio that they would be willing to part with to rectify the problem.? Any ideas welcome!

Emperor Ming Posted October 24, 2008 Author Share Posted October 24, 2008 When you say standard radio, do you mean the non-BOSE UK set-up? Hi mate Nope. My car is an import and its the radio that came with it. Miraculously it seems to be working again at the moment but there is obviously a fault somewhere.

M13KYF Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 did you give it a good thwack (Ming the basher) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H5 Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 If it is a Jap unit I assume it has a frequency expander on it? It could be that bit that has an intermittent fault? Hope you're well bud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
