Bad radio ***** on 2005
Hi,
I have browsed a lot but not been able to find anyone experiencing similar problems with their stock 2005 radio.
Both the power and the bass/treble ***** has the same problem. They do work when turning (for adj volume and stations) but not when pressing. Ok still the power do work after 10 times or so but I don' dare to turn it off anymore but the bass/treble has stopped working permanent. I guess there are some bad connection when pressing cause it has getting worse year by year...
Has anyone had this problem ? How did you solve it is it a possible DIY ?
Regards/Thomas, from Sweden

Yes I tried yesterday with ***** removed it's exactly the same problem. I also tried press and turn a lot to get better connection in the far down position and guess what yes it does work a bit better. Today I have been able to press and get to both bass, treble and midrange...these has never been visible before...?
Strange though that I have these bad connection ***** on both power and bass/treble ***** and no one else with a C6 has experienced it before ?

Sounds like an issue with your radio.
If you can adjust eq settings with **** removed, I'd suggest setting them where you like it and replacing *****. Probably not what you were hoping for, but should be better than it was yesterday
