Main Power Cable Loose

Check the main power cable to the battery. Wiggle the power cable connected to the battery, by touching the plastic casing around the wire, to see if it is loose. A loose battery cable can cause intermittent power loss to the radio. Tighten the clamp connecting the cable to the battery.

Locate the ground wire leaving the radio. The ground wire will be connected to bare metal on the vehicle. Tighten the ground wire to the vehicle to ensure it is making contact.

Locate the wires that lead to each speaker that comes from the wiring harness. Check to see if the connections between the wiring harness and the vehicle's speaker wires are connected tightly. If not connected tightly, replace the wire connectors to ensure a solid connection.

Having an old battery or a faulty battery could cause the radio to not have enough power. The battery to your car may need to be replaced.
