You can try pulling the fuses for the telephone with the car off. I believe they are the middle two fuses 15A & 7.5A on the left bank. The fusebox is behind the cover on the passenger side in the rear hatch area.

I have to do this for time to time when I use the bluetooth feature in my car with my non-supported phone. The radio gets stuck in phone mode and will not respond to button presses to change it back to radio. Pulling the fuses for a few seconds does restore proper operation.

I am ordering a supported device to see if it still happens with that phone before complaining to the dealer.

little confused, i did try to pull 7.5 but there are 3 of them, and i dont see fuse 15A at all, pulling all 3 fuses of 7.5 did not do the job, the SOS button on the top is blinking and no radio sound, very annoying

guys help please, there has to be a way to stop this SOS from blinking, and reactivate the radio and cd player, so i can play the damn music. Dont wanna go to dealer for such minor thing.
thnx

Try removing fuse No. 7 in the glove box. Then remove fuses 72, 73, 74, 75 in the rear trunk fuse box.

Thnx, i went again, there is no fuse number 7 in the glove compartment, and there are no fuses 72,73,74,75 in the rear trunk box.
Is this normal? My fuses mainly say 20's and 30's

there should be a sticker labeling the fuses on the fusebox. look for ones labeled telephone.

Ok i will go again, i will disconnect the telephone fuse, but as i recall the fuse 7 says telephone, and there is no fuse number 7

If the fuses are getting you nowhere...Try going into the trunk and disconnecting the battery for a few minutes then re-connect it...Its worth a shot.
