jazzy aux-in cutting out

[boomshnka]

I've had my Jazzy aux-in mod for over a year now with mostly no problems. I say mostly because it has started behaving in a strange fashion over the last couple of months.

When I first start up the car, everything is fine. Within about 10 minutes though, I will have sound out of only the driver side speakers. Over the next 30 minutes I will have sound from all speakers or sound from only the driver side speakers at random. If I drive for more the 45 minutes I will start to get static and within a few minutes I will get no audio out at all. The only remedy is to turn the stereo off completely and then turn it back on. If I only turn the stereo off for a few minutes I will get about one minute of use out of the jazzy aux-in. If I leave the stereo off for at least an hour the whole cycle seems to start over.

One thing to note, no other function of the stereo seems to be affected. I can play CDs and listen to the radio as much as I want...it's only the aux-in that is having issues.

I'm wondering if it's a heat issue but I don't know why it would start to do this after a year. Any ideas?

I had this happen also.. Thought the same thing as you.. but what I found was my line in wire, was coming loose out of my sirius unit.

I would say check all your connections.. things come loose slowly.. over bumps and heat cycles. Might mean opening up your radio again though. Hopefully its the outside connection.

Thanks. It's nice to know that I'm not just going crazy :-) I'll open it up this weekend and report back unless anyone has any other advice.
