Yeah, I would try that. Sounds like a glitch in the radio. If that doesn't work try putting the radio into test mode.
Summarized from the Ford Service Manual: Speaker Walk-Around Test: NOTE: To enter the speaker walk-around test or audio unit self-diagnostic mode, the audio unit must be turned on and in radio tuner mode (AM/FM). 1. To enter the speaker walk-around test, simultaneously press and hold the audio unit preset buttons 3 and 6 for approximately 3 seconds, then release. 2. The speaker walk-around test applies sound to each speaker for about 1.5 seconds. Each speaker is tested and displayed on the audio unit in the following sequence: RF, LF, LR, RR. Audio Unit Self-Diagnostic Mode: • NOTE: Always document and clear DTCs and carry out the audio unit on-demand self-test again. 1. To enter the following tests, press the desired preset button while in the speaker walk-around test or while in the audio unit self-diagnostic mode. 2. To exit the audio unit self-diagnostic mode, turn the key or the audio unit to OFF. 3. The audio unit self-diagnostic mode has 5 tests available: • Preset Button 1 = Audio internal/external SELF TEST. This test is an on-demand self-test. If SELF FAIL is displayed, press TUNE > to scroll through the DTCs stored. Refer to the Audio Unit DTC Index. If the system is OK, SELF PASS will be displayed. • Preset Button 2 = View/Clear continuous DTCs. NO DTCS is displayed if no DTCs are retrieved. If DTCS FOUND is displayed, press TUNE > to view the DTCs retrieved. Refer to the Audio Unit Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Index. To clear all DTCs, press the EJECT button. DTCS CLEAR will be displayed. • Preset Button 3 = SIGNAL TEST. This test measures the average strength at the current tuner setting. ** Perfect for testing antenna types and position changes. ** • Preset Button 4 = Software level query. This test queries each audio system controller for its software configuration level. SOFT LEVELS will be displayed upon completion of the query. Press TUNE > to scroll view the software configuration version level. • Preset Button 5 = DISPLAY TEST. This test will light all the audio unit display segments for 5 seconds.

My Explorer did things very similar
A few days later, the truck would not start - battery was dead Got a new battery and symptoms went away. Seems a weak battery can cause strange things Easiest thing is to swap out with a known good battery before you buy another. |
