Radio comes on really loud
« on: 22 February 2022, 08:08:22 »

Hi

Every time I start my 2.6 facelift the radio comes on extremely loud, any ideas why?

Seems to be after I reconnect the battery and start, does this reset the radio to "on" as it is in storage just now and connect up battery to start it up.

Cheers

CDR2005 is not Bose-able.  Is this in your Elite, or CD ?

Fitting a non Bose HU to a car with a Bose amp will make the volume loud, and each click of the volume makes a large difference in volume.

It's the CD. It's only when I reconnect the battery then press the unlock button to reset the central locking it comes on really loud.

OK, the CD won't have Bose (unless you've retro fitted it).


Given the age of these radios now, the EEPROMS seem to be failing a little.  Sometimes refreshing them helps, sometimes that can end in tears.

I'd be inclined to try to live with it TBH.

I can live with it if it's just one of those things better left alone.
