This issue happened to me again. It definitely has to be related to heat. It worked fine for about an hour, but then started the MUTE / ATT on/off. The car heater had been on, and I think it's causing the unit to overheat. The problem is there is not much room in the dash behind the unit, so I am wondering if the wires are blocking the fan or vents. Plus the heater vents are right behind the dash by the AVIC. Unfortunately I'll have to take the dash apart to look at it.. maybe this weekend.
Has anyone else had this issue during the winter time when the car heat is on?
