My wife's 04 Explorer with 6 cd radio is posessed. In the past, the drivers door speaker has quit, and it turned out to be the computer. Now, when you go to turn the radio volumn down, it goes up instead. And not just slightly, but a bunch. Any thoughts, short of replacing the radio? Car only has 54,000 miles on it.

 

Pop the radio, buy after market, something that has quality. might want to check out Crutchfield. The sound will be way better.

 

the stock raidos for all ford vehicles of these years have the problem, my F-150 (2001) did it, my dads F-250 (2004) did it, my sisters Expedition (2002) did it, etc; etc; replace the radio with an aftermarket unit and make sure whoever installs it knows what their doing. one wrong move, next thing you know your truck wont start, or your wipers quit working.

 

Thanks, appreciate the info. Guess it is new stereo time.

 

Any recommendations on a replacement radio?
