Hey guys,
i have a 2011 kakadu Prado and just the other day the audio made a sparking/shorting noise through the speakers and then the audio turned off ( showed on screen) for a while then turned on automatically... now this is really random it could happen when i adjust the seat to hitting a bump in the road...or may be with in 5 mins of me starting the car or driving for an hour and not play up at all.
ive disconnected the amp and it does the exact noise and symptoms as if it normally does driving down the road. now
ive wiggled the wiring into the amp while having the radio on and it doesn't do anything.
i disconnect the amp for a day and reconnected it and it lasted about 2 days and had no issue then again i adjusted the seat while driving and its started playing up again so i removed the seat and checked the clearance from the top of the amp and the seat no issues.
ive tried to find second hand amp no luck
im sure it has something to do with the amp loosing power but not 100% how else to test it and replacement is $950
has anyone had this issue and successfully replaced the amp and had no more issues
