Electrical gremlins - 2011 Base
New owner here. I searched, but couldn't find what I was looking for. 2 issues I'm having;
1. Radio volume won't turn up or down. I can spin the **** either way and it the Volume readout on the LCD stays in the same place. It looks like it's trying to move, but doesn't. This is intermittent. Works about 75% of the time.
2. Dash lights have a mind of their own. Some times they dim for no reason. Again, most of the time they are OK, but maybe 20% of the time I'm driving they just dim for know apparent reason.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Scott

If OP's battery is original, it's now 5 years or older. Probably due to be replaced.
If battery is newer, most auto supply places will test it free or at small cost. The test is not 100% accurate, but a good start.
