Weird electrical/Shaker problem
Weird electrical/Shaker problem
Started up my car this morning and noticed that the clock was reset to 12:00, my CD player had to "initialize", and all of my custom audio settings were gone. Anyone else experience this? Not sure if it's a general electrical problem or Shaker specific.
Try putting it in "radio" mode (not CD mode) and pushing preset 3 and 6 together and holding them down...you'll enter diagnostic mode. the speakers will cycle through each one individually to check each speaker's output. Press the 2 preset and see if it has any DTC's (diagnostic trouble codes) for the radio. 3 is the radio signal strength...etc. If there's an electrical problem, it might show up in the DTC's.

My guess is it's the battery taking a dump.
Mine did the same thing after sitting in the garage for a while. Now, I have a Battery Tender hooked up to it and all is well.

Did I call it or what?To prevent this from happening again in the future, invest in a Battery Tender if you're not going to drive it daily.
