    Exclamation Need help from the Techies!!

    So to make a long story short, basically the other morning after work I get to my car and it's about 28* F freezing cold. I start my car and my radio comes blasting on, like deafening loud.... I try all the buttons/knobs on the radio and steering wheel and nothing works. Volume, stations nothing. I then turn off the car, pull the key out and the radio is still blasting for about another minute, then shuts off. Now it won't turn on for anything, all buttons radio related don't work. Nav and OBC still work fine though.

    Any thoughts as to what caused this or how to fix? Thanks

    Sounds like it froze to death. LOL.

    Now you see why I suck at the technical forums. I'm sure someone will be here soon to rescue me.

    I said what we were all thinking (at least the jokesters).

    Not a techie here but does the radio display anything at all or is it completely black?

    Tried putting a CD in it to see if anything else works?

    Well the display works fine as the Nav and OBC are integrated into the unit, just none of the radio functions work. Oddly enough I can still load and unload a CD but when you push the knob on the left to turn on the radio nothing happens.

    While it looks like the fuses are the same for radio and nav, I'd check them anyway.
