Audio Systems: 2001 Mustang Mach 460 stereo, tweters, mustang mach


Question
QUESTION: Well, I went out to my car, this a.m., to commute to work - and the VOLUME control is not working in my stereo! It kept cranking to mind-exploding proportions; the system was fine last night when I "put the car to bed". It has a 6-CD load, and the single twist-to-turn knob for volume control. Help! I just bought the car two weeks ago and want to fix this as inexpensively as possible. Thanks so!

ANSWER: check the amplifier in the trunk

worst problem they have is where they are mount water gets there all the time
bad if it rain lately or if the vehicle is convertible

QUESTION: I want to thank you for your time, but we hadn't had any rain, in that overnight period, and by the afternoon of the same day it happened, it was fine. Of course, when I took it to the car stereo place. We are thinking that the knob itself got "out of whack" and maybe it jostled back to a "connection". Who knows... Thanks again.

Answer
there are some amplifier in the trunk of your vehicle one is for the right  one for the left side or sometimes  there is amplifiers for mids and amplifier for subs if they fail you can only hear the tweters

the first thing to do is check the amplifiers power  if there is power the defective unit needs to be replace

check the amplifiers or switch them first
