Just as a crazy notion I tried putting a CD in and voila! Sound in both channels! I took the CD back out and now the radio was working fine, too. It worked like that until the next day and then same thing. This time all I had to do was change radio stations and the left channel kicked back in.
Since then I've noticed it's most likely to stay fixed until I shut the car off for the day and then might cut out again at next start up.
Any ideas as to what's wrong?
Crossfire Radios = TERRIBLE (even the NAV).... Your problem over the next couple of weeks/month will continue to get worse and worse....
I had these symptoms and even more, such as eating disks, not turning off, not changing channels, etc.... You're better off buying and installing a new headunit. You will get both better sound, and functionability...
Lemme know if you have any questions.
