Default Re: Radio Looses Power Intermittently

Thinking a power supply plug is loose but not sure how to access it. I'd appreciate any help
While I don't have the factory unit in my car (I have an aftermarket Sony), my radio was doing the exact same thing. One time when it did it, I happen to be looking at the dash and I saw the BAS/ESP light flash on when then radio lost power and then went off when the radio powered back up (probably less than 2 seconds from power off to power on). I learned from this forum that a bad battery connection can cause problems like this so, even though my connections "looked" OK, I removed and cleaned the clamps and posts and made sure the connections were good and tight when I put them back on. It never did it again.

Hope this helps.
