Radio dash light going on and off

Hi, Have an '06 EX coupe. The light that shows the radio station , volume level and clock keeps going on and off. Sometimes off for awhile, sometimes back on quick. Sometimes flickers dim then comes back. Whats going on and how do I fix it. Thanks

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Re: Radio dash light going on and off

If ONLY the display backlight is affected (not the illumination in the buttons), then the problem is probably internal to the radio itself.
Could be poor solder joints.

Dealer would send the radio in for repair.

You might have someone local that does radio repairs.
Ask your other local dealers who they use. Or, you know, look in a phone book.
I know we have a guy here in town that does only factory radios, his specialty is GM radios but will do almost any OE radio. Won't touch aftermarket radios at all.
