2011 Ranger Stock Radio Issues

[willc_here]

Anyone else experience this? What's the fix?

All of the buttons on my stock 6-disc receiver have stopped working...except for the CD load function. I have a disc stuck in slot 1 that I'm unable to eject. Have tried resetting it by pulling the ground cable off the battery for 30minutes-ish. No success and now I can't reprogram my clock LOL. Would like my CD back and then I plan to replace this deck. Thankfully the volume works and it plays the CD...straight through...on repeat.

One weird mention. Last Tuesday I had three CD's loaded into slots 1-3. Randomly while I was driving, it started ejecting the CDs. I was not aware of the button failure before I loaded one of them into slot 1 as mentioned above. I'm thinking maybe a frayed wire/cable behind the unit caused a short in the panel? Otherwise it was working great and I was considering keeping it.

Your truck's Machine Spirit is reacting to your taste in music.

Easiest fix is to sacrifice one chicken to the Omnissiah, re-flash your cybernetics, and choose music that does not anger the Machine Spirit of your truck's PCM.

If you want to go the extra mile, anoint your truck with high quality oil and ask your local Tech Priest to affix a few purity seals in order to protect it against your future transgressions.
