Last week when I went on a road trip, i noticed the sound from both my right side of speakers and front left were off. Figured it was a loose wire so as i was driving, I was going to turn the car off/on. I poped it in neutral and as i turned the motor off, the right side turned on. So figured it's a loose wire somewhere because my front driver side still didn't work. Playback of music was all from iphone.

 

Later that day after a pit stop, I got back in the car and my right side wasn't working again. To see if it was in all modes, i switched from iphone source to CD. Lo and behold, all speakers but front left work. Same with SD card source. A soon as I switch back to iphone source, the right side died again.

 

I restarted the car and cleaned the iphone connection wire and now all speakers but driver left work in all modes. I don't know if it's a loose wire or if my radio is starting to die. Anyone have any ideas?

 

Just to clarify something, when I say my speakers "off," a little bit of sound was coming out of them. Not music, but like little muffled noises of the song. It wasn't understandable and I had to mute all the other speakers in the car to hear the noise so it was very very low sound.

Oh cool.. lol... I went to my car to see what version I had to begin replacing stuff. What do ya know? Everything works fine and in all modes too. No idea what the problem is even if it's still there.

Who installed the unit? If you did check make sure harness and all wires are properly tapped/soldered if by installer they should fix this. This sounds like an install problem otherwise it would be a unit issue maybe with its power output to speakers in any case not much help any people here can prob give.
