2007 Ranger AM-FM Cd radio- intermittent no audio in drive/reverse

[RangerBobMan]

Hi, All...Interested in hearing from those that have experienced/solved this issue
I have an 07 Ranger Sport- 3.0 with AM-FM Cd radio
Intermittently, I'll lose audio in Drive/Revere and 1 and 2. It will come on/cut out as I move column shifter. Radio turns on, display always functions but no audio
It's an intermittent problem that seems aggravated in rainy/humid conditions
Heard it might be the trans range sensor...replaced that with new...didn't solve.

Who's had/solved this problem?

Is this an aftermarket stereo? Most electrical problems I see is where stereos and trailer lights are hardwired instead of with plug and play adapters are usually available for most aftermarket equipment.

Does 07 have steering wheel audio controls? If so might be something to look into.
