Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Well the strangest thing happened yesterday with my OEM radio/CD player. Having the day before played a CD and radio without difficulty I hopped in yesterday and the volume was UP AT FULL AND REFUSED TO TURN DOWN!!! (caps and bold for effect!). Turning the volume knob left or right had no impact but pushing it to switch off did work. I don't listen to the radio all that much so I'll forego the pleasure for now but is this a common issue?

POST 2Original post

Had this and was due to wiring loom fault with speed dependent volume control feed. Suggest check check the connector / wiring loom to radio. Hope this helps

POST 3Original post

Just pull the radio fuse in the footwell and after a short wait put back again. That usually resolves the problem.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thank you @marc_tt and @Geoff Fields who certainly makes it sound like my problem isn't unique (and after all why should it be?) . Nothing scientific abut this but I ejected the cd, turned the unit off, turned it back on, put a cd back in and TADAA! Normal service resumed.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
