Default Radio Glitch

New owner to a 2005 SC430 with 28K miles. It has the stock radio with Nav. Whenever I adjust the volume using the radio volume **** the display then turns off and on, stations change on their own and I cannot use the radio. I have to turn off the radio and wait a minute or two, turn on the radio and it works fine. I can adjust the volume using the steering control paddles and those work fine. I changed the amp and that did not help. I took the radio out and took it to a shop and they said it was fine. Anybody have a problem like this? What was your solution? Thank You.

it sounds like the volume control/switch is bad, but you said the radio repair shop said it was fine…
I suppose a “new” to you ebay radio might correct the issue.

I bet there are a few people on this forum who have oem radios on their shelves. If you were to ask, I bet people would PM you with offers for them.
