When I powered up the radio this morning, I am not hearing any audio. When I got home last night, all well.
Are there any diagnostics for the sound system?
Thanks.

Update; So, I was visiting a friend of mine in hospital all day after this happened on my way there. When he was dozing out off and on I was searching the web for related issues. I did see the fuse and battery fix like you guys stated.

This evening when I left the hospital, started up my truck, everything was working.

Same thing happens with my reverse camera, it goes static like on start-up, turn off the ignition and restart, all is well.
(took it in last month for the camera recal, camera system "did not produse a code" so dealership did nothing.}

I would pull out the radio and check the connections in the back. Maybe corrosion of some type?

Like I said on your other thread it's a known problem and you will have to keep rebooting it by pulling the #29 fuse or just upgrade it from sync 2 to sync 3, the dealership will be of no help because it will not set off any codes.

That's a good idea, I've been wanting to check the antenna connection anyway since this truck has the worse reception than any other vehicle I've owned or ridden in.
