07' Gs Radio Won't Turn On...spit Out All Cd's Before

Nick Carberry · July 23, 2012

Hi All,

All has been running well in the Lex until recently. While on a trip, I found the "mode" changing from FM to AC to AM on occasion. It would reset after I turned the car off. A week later, it would randomly spit out all 6 of my CD's (without hitting the button). This week, the radio does not turn on at all. The Nav screen works just fine, just cannot get to any radio/cd/ac functions at all.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Nick

I would start by pulling the head unit and unplugging each connector and reconnecting them one at a time. Several people here reported having erratic conditions after installing an iPod adaptor (especially in cold weather). It seems a slightly loose connector can cause problems.

There is a sticky thread called DVD Bypass in this forum that shows how to pull the head unit out. I'm not suggesting to do the modifications, just to use the removal instructions. It's worth a try and free. :)
