Hello! 2005 ES330
After reading many threads I realize my AMP has most likely gone out (clicking). If I pressed the AM/SAT button then the FM button the clicking turned off. I had to press the AM/SAT button even when using the CD player. I didn't have SAT service maybe the previous owner did. Now the sound turned off and has stayed off. I also don't have GPS if that matters.

I'd like to know where the AMP located, some ES330 sites mention under the glove box, others mention it's in the trunk on right side. I am betting it's in the back on mine but is there a sure way I can find out? Dropping the glove box is a no go for me, the back of the trunk I'll give it a try. Once I get it out, I'll try to see if something is loose, or use one of the repair places mentioned on several of the sites.

My biggest issue is getting everything pulled out and then I know it won't go back in again.The real killer is that the sound system was one of the main reasons for buying this car. Grrrrr I live in Denver so maybe I can find a sound system repair shop to put it back together again. All or any words of advice will be encouraging.... Thanks

 

If I am looking at this right the Pioneer is behind the glove box Mark Levinson in the trunk.

Thanks for sending this to me however my es330 is a 2005. I am sure they changed the location. How did you get that information?

 

The location info for a 2005 is the same. If you want to be 100% sure punch in your VIN to this site

How can I find out if I have a Pioneer or a Nakamichi? I'll search all over the car info, I don't have the spec book on the sound system. My Vin number might tell me right?

 

Any idea where I can find one? Many thanks!
