Weird thing happened yesterday with my radio.

[Hemimania]

Turned off my truck at work like any other morning. Started my truck with the remote at 5:30 PM. Noticed the radio was on AM. It's always on XM. Then i noticed the icons on the bottom of the screen were all back to orig settings. Was confused so i kept looking. The bass and treble were all at level. What the hell happened?

Anyone else ever experience this?

Possibly the battery is near the end of life. Funky things happen if the voltage is low.

Maybe the radio had a reboot or something interrupted the power when starting. Look at your battery connections and see if all tight

If it's the original mopar battery, I would think it's on its last leg. Time to get a new one.

auto zone checks the battery for free maybe go take a ride to find out and have them check the alternator while their at it

Older battery plus Sitting outside in cold and then starter pulling about 200 amps can pull batt voltage down below 11 VDC and that can mess with lots of electronics in truck.. I would have the battery load tested..

I was thinking it was the Russians.

I was thinking it was the Russians.

Yep, Russians hacked you. I like to blame Gremlins for many things, but its probably the Russians.

Seriously though, my vote is for the battery-on-its-way-out theory.

Wanna thank everyone who helped me here. It was indeed the Russians. Jk. It was a poor battery.
