how to get FM radio back?
I was wiping the dash and somehow I must've pressed something and now I can't get FM. pressing the FM button doesn't do anything as well.
When I first turn on the screen, the first screen is the "accept" thing which I do accept and then it goes to a screen with several selection like GPS (for selecting destination), settings (for setting time/date format and etc) and other options. My unit is the one with the GPS. Any ideas on how to get back normal functions? thanks! :) |
I think you push the mode button to get it to change from CD & Radio.
|
tried that already. I pushed all the buttons :/
|
are you in the OCE mode? or the US? in either mode you should have the FM but maybe, just maybe, you have changed the mode and it somehow lost the FM...
turn off the radio, then turn it on and hold MENU button as the radio comes on... in about 10 seconds or so, you should see the serial number of the radio... as you go through available options, one of them should be country, toggle to the desired country then turn the radio off, and then back on... any preset radio stations will be wiped off but maybe you can get your FM back... let us know how it went... |

the left knob that regulates the volume - press it in...
which makes me think... is your radio ON to begin with? is little orange light next to volume knob on? push that knob once, see if the light comes on... your radio might simply be turned off... |

the light beside the left knob is on and the light beside the cassette eject button (top right) is on as well. thanks again :) |
you said the light next to cassette eject buttonis on... it is a bluetooth light... it is green when there is an active call, the radio is muted but the radio functions still work, you can dial into frequency, you can go to CD changer or TV tuner, but can't hear anything, while the call is active, as is evidenced by the green light...
if the light is red, the BT unit is connected to the cell phone but there is not coverage and thus the light is red... not sure about stand alone orange light... but when all three are blinking, then you have pairing in progress... tell us more about your issue: radio is on - amberlight next to volume is on using MODE key on the left, can you select CD changer? can you play the CDs? using the AM key, can you select AM radio station, is the frequency visible on screen, can you dial to a station and listen to it? using the FM key, can you select FM radio station, is the frequency visible on the screen, can you dial to a station and listen to it? using the same FM key, can you get into next FM screen, FM2? what about FMA? can you press FM key again to get to FMA? are any of those things visible on the monitor? when you go to the TV function (if you have TV), can you tune to a broadcast station? can you hear it? when you are navigating, can you hear the navigation lady (i have a lady, do you have a lady?) telling what to do? when you have BT call, can you hear your BT conversation over the factory speakers and the microphone? |
will check those suggestion when I get home. thank you very much! :)

Just tried now. No light beside left knob. Pressing the left knob in for more than 20 secs doesn't do anything.
