Is there a quick mute option that works with any soure that is active? Maybe I'm missing something but I can't find it anywhere.

On another note: The steering wheel remote sucks. It only works about half the time. I had one of these units in my last car and it sucked too. That was about 3 years ago so I figured they had improved it. Not so.

Please help, this volume thing is driving me nuts!!!

hold the source button will turn off the source, press it again it will resume playing

That's the only solution for a mute?

The hard wired remote (SWI-PS) for the steering wheel controls has a mute option. I just used a button I don't ever use for it. Works great. It's actually called "attenuate" with this unit.

What if I don't have steering wheel controls from the factory?

Then I think you're stuck with one of the Pioneer IR remotes. By the way, I really think when someone has intermittant issues with the IR remote, it has more to do with positioning than anything else. The sensor just can't get a good signal.

Thanks for the info. I don't think I have much choice with the possitioning of the steering wheel remote so I guess I'll just have to live with it.

Where do you see a mute button on the SR remote? I have one and I still have to hold the source button to mute it

Ther is no mute button.

No kidding? That is a serious oversight. I wonder why you can mute through the SWI-PS and not through their own remote?? That's silly.
