Default Radio issues

A while back, every once in a while my stereo would not come on after ignition. Now its literally 9 out of 10 times. The radio comes on when I out the bike in ignition, then when I crank it, it cuts off but doesn't come back on. Kinda annoying to say the least. Any ideas before I take it to a dealer?

I had the same problem with my 14 flhxs. I made sure I had the most current downloads, but The radio was bad. Dealer replaced it for no charge. It started off as an occasional thing, then just got more and more frequent. Word to the wise: make sure your gps works after they mess with the radio. They forgot to flash mine so I had nothing but a spinning compass when I turned my gps on.
Good luck.
