time for a replacement.

Trim pot (or similar) stuffed in the radio.. Either replace the radio or get it fixed.. I can only suggest to leave the radio off, if that can't be done remove the fuse

Probably something dicky in the volume dial. I'd use it as an excuse to put in a new headunit

lol its my sisters she likes it how it is.. hrm i might see if i can find the same model at the wreakers n swap it over.. iv never herd or seen this problem befor.. and dont kno who to take it to lmao

plus she likes listening to cds n stuff.. so takin out the fuse wont help! lol

she is female, they dont notice certain things. Just borrow the car for a day, get a new on put int and pre program all the radio stations back in, she wont even notice LOL

Nah seriously, i reckon a new one for sure, not sure what it costs to fixt these things but more often than not the cost of another one from a wreckers wont be much, not many people chase wreckers for standard stereos so you should get one pretty cheap

pull the postive wire off the horn? that would make the car unroadworthy though. only a tempo fix.
