[QUOTE="ThyBennyyy, post: 8814072, member: 686783"] Hey all, Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have taken my car into "Tonkin In-car Solutions" about getting my car audio fixed but they have said to me that they don't know what problem it could be as they have never heard of this before?! And now want me to pay $100 an hour for them to go over the car just to find what may or may not be the problem. So, here is my situation: [B]Firstly my car:[/B] Ford FG XR6 Ute Limited Edition 2011 with stock audio, atleast i believe it is. I bought it second hand in 2014 and had no audio troubles until this year, 2022. [B]Problem: [/B]Car [B]RADIO[/B] has stopped working completely. This is all i ever use/listen to. The speakers started crackling one day and then periodically over about a month i lost them all, 1 at a time until no sound at all. After going to Tonkin, they thought it was a "module" in the system because of no sound at all and wanted me to pay $1000 to fix it and i was okay with this, lock it in, done but it wasn't so simple. But they did a few little tests while i was there... switched over to aux and cd and ofcourse now theres some sound! Front right and rear left actually play music with crazy loud hiss or fuzz. The other two speakers have no sound at all. Turning down the treble in the car settings reduced the hiss significantly but not completely. This is when Tonkin basically said... we have no idea, called someone who is good with this stuff and he said he had no idea too! [B]Questions: [/B]Does anyone have any idea what this could be so i can get someone to repair it? Does anyone know a good place in Adelaide, SA to take it to be done? [/QUOTE]
