How do I stop my speakers from cutting out?

Why does the radio turn off when the car is off?

I have a 1999 Ford ranger. Cougar July 6, 2016, 12:25am #2 I’m not sure if the power to the radio is supposed to cut off with the ignition switch or not. If it is then it appears a modification to power has been made or the ignition switch is turning off like it should.

What to do when your radio is off all the time?

One cheap fix would be to put a switch in the power lead to the radio and mount the switch in a convenient location. The power lead is on all the time. If you switch it off, then all the station presets will be lost, as well as the clock, the last station tuned to, and the volume level.

Why do people turn down the radio when they are lost?

That includes seemingly passive activities like listening to music.

What to do if your car radio is out of order?

If you notice any loose connection, then try to tighten it and push it firmly in the port. If the connector is out of order, then replace that connector immediately.

How do you know if your car radio is bad?

The “jiggle test is one way–by jiggling various wires with the deck plugged in–if you can duplicate the problem this way, then you know you have a wiring or connector problem. If all the connections test out OK, then the problem is internal to the deck. Sign In or Register to comment.

Why does audio come back on when the screen goes off?

When the monitor is off after 10min of no use and I move the mouse, the sound comes back instantly (actually faster than the screen lights back up). That’s telling me that the live radio stream is still going in the background, but there must be a simple setting I’m missing somewhere that kills the actual audio output.
