I have a 2011 ram 1500 outdoorsman. My radio is starting to crap out. It is the RES non-touchscreen. The radio will turn on and I can change the channel, switch between satellite to CD to am/fm and it recognizes all of that but there is no sound. Won't even recognize I am turning the volume knob. Then at random it will play sound and the volume will work. Once it is working it will continue to work until I turn the truck off. It won't cut out. Sometimes it works right when I start the truck. Sometimes it won't and will start working when I hit a bump or when just sitting in a parking lot. It is completely random. So I was pretty sure it was the radio. I have tried to reset by disconnecting the battery. Didn't work. I found a RBZ touchscreen radio in working condition and installed that and it worked great for the first 4 or 5 days. Now that radio will work when it wants. The screen is completely black but when i touch the screen it beeps acknowledging that I touched it. Then the next time it will turn on and work like normal. What could cause this? I thought it was the radio. I am leaning twords the truck now.
