Default Random changing of inputs when it gets hot

The radio and entertainment system in my 2010 LX570 ejects the CD and randomly changes inputs when the outside temperature reaches the upper 90s or hotter. This behavior subsides after a few minutes once the AC kicks in and the interior temperature cools down.
Has any of you experienced this? Any ideas about what might be happening?

Thank you.

I don't think so. It only happens when it is extremely hot inside the car. I saw some postings on the RX350 that described the exact same behavior, but the OP never reported how he got it fixed.

Did you ever find a solution?

Hi,

Though I have to wait for the extremely hot temperatures to kick in to confirm my findings, I can say that my problem was related to a module that got wet directly under the HVAC blower. In addition to the random shutdowns and input changes, my parking sensors were also not working. I took it apart, cleaned up the corrosion, and now I have no more symptoms, at least so far. I hope this helps.
