I have very low volume on my radio on my 2005. Is this a problem with the amplifer and if so other then replacing it is there a fix?

 

I have a 2005 coupe, and the volume seems lower playing am or fm, but volume on CDs seems fine. I've lived with it.

 

Is it low on radio but ok on CDs or low overall?

 

Both AM,FM and CD

 

Ok, then it's either the head or AMP. If you can hook up with another Crossfire owner with an original head, they can be quickly swapped and you'll know right then if it's the head or amp!

You can swap them with ONLY the removal tool ($5 at Walmart or Advance auto) - THEN you'll know what direction to go. There are a lot of OEM heads for sale, many here have replaced theirs with "better" heads.

 

Thanks for the information. Since i'm new at this were is the head located and what tool am i looking for.
FYI my wifes Crossfires looks just like yours

 

The "Head" is the Radio (AM/FM/CD unit) itself.

There is a radio removal tool you can get, looks like a key - I'm headed out, if I get a chance, I'll look here, you might do a search for "Radio removal tool" I think there is a post here showing how to use it and giving the part number at Advance Auto.

Gotta head out on a call....
