That sucks. Odds are its an inadequate connection behind the radio.

[franco90]

I will check the connections thanks

Do you have amps and a full system? Do you have a voltmeter to check? Your car's charging system might be dropping below 11-12v... that would cause audio equipment to reset. Could be alternator or battery? Or could just be a loose connection as stated above.

SAME THING HAPPEND TO ME! okay so first check your grounds. then check your remotes. makes sure they are all well connected.

Now i have a question for you. how watts is your sub and how many watts is your amp. Chances are that your amp is shutting off because its overloading and its connected to your deck. so you need a more powerful amp for your sub. thats what happen to me and my friend and we both have e30's check it out man. good luck

heh...i couldnt figure out why when i turned the e30 on why my amp only came on with the radio...my special remote/switched source happened to be the power to the damn antennae. Radio electrical is easy fix and generally isn't a detrimental effect on the deck or system.Yay for fuseable links

Didn't you mean to say "Ohms"? If not, that may possibly be the dumbest thing I have heard in regards to audio on R3V.

when I am at the stop light my radio shut off and on.
my lights dim alot like the car is going to shut off .I give it gas and my lights and radio work fine.

Franco, it sounds like your car is not charging.

New does not mean "good", new means good.

Go have your charging system analyzed. Should not cost much if anything, lots of places here do it for free. Make sure your battery works properly. Heaters and windshield wipers and rear defrosters use up a lot of power, so your alternator/battery just might be weak.

Go get it checked out.
