Wtf: My Stereo Is Intermittent!
 
OKAY....WHO THINKS THEY HAVE THE ANSWER????????
For the past 4 months my Mach 460 is intermittent...the Stereo WORKS, the CD playerS WORK(both of them!)...but there is NO SOUND! They are both functioning but I cannot hear anything! Sometimes it will 'pop' on for on driving session, then I will not hear ANYTHING for a week or 2!!!!! :mad:
I just spent $60 on a damn CD/stereo(portable) because I can not drive w/ no tunes. I turned the stereo off in my car Sunday,(it was not working anyway) and today, LO AND BEHOLD...it worked all 3 times I got in my car and cranked it up! I dont think its the AMP cuz the units are functioning....just no sound most the time! Anyone else had this problem b4??????????????? What to do?????? make it CHEAP!!!!!!!! :D TNT

hmmmm....
 
How do you know that the amps or headunit are working? Just because they power up does not mean that they are working. I would check the amps first.

like this is a big SURPRISE!!!!
 
YEAH... well, if you can believe it, i have got in and out of my car 6 TIMES TODAY! and the damn thing keeps working! I"m sure its only temporary! How do you check the amp? I went to Car Toys..they were now help. This is NOT something I would EVEN want to attempt on my own. I want to take it to someone who can check it all out QUICKLY AND CHEAPLY! Do you suggest a Ford Dealership(they make me nervous! If they are crooks,) a Stereo Place? or what? Who would ya'll take your Stang to for this problem??????? :confused: any suggestions would be much appreciated!!!!! THANKS! :D TNT

??STUPID QUESTION FOR THE DAY!....Whats a Headunit???? :rolleyes:

Well, just ask around and find a small shop that has a good reputation for helping out with problems. I know of several here, but League City is a different story. Definitely DO NOT go to a Ford dealer for help. I doubt your car is under warranty and they would charge a fortune for something very simple.

Answer for the day: A headunit is the actual stereo that you do all the messing with when you are driving. Women drivers... :p

Oh, ok! :D Hey, I'm about to jump a plane and head out your way! I fly into Love Field at 12:30! hehehe...small world! I'll be curious to see if my stereo is working this morning! Are they gonna televise the Dallas/Houston game there tonight? Its only on the radio here in Houston! Lemme know? :D Be cool if I can catch it while I am there! :) TNT

If it were me I'd just buy a new deck, if it still didn't work replace the speakers, and if it's still not working I would check the wiring. Trying to keep it cheap I'd check the wiring first, but then (for me)there would be no excuse to replace the stereo :D
