Exclamation Sound stops after 1 song

Hi all, anyone have and radio issues from 2010 to current year? Here is the situation:

1. Start bike (2010 Ultra Classic)
2. Take off down the road.
3. Turn on radio.
4. Radio plays 1/2 to one song (radio or CD) and sound goes dead.
5. No errors showing on radio. Radio behaves like it is running fine.
6. Turn radio off and back on, 3 and 4 happen again.
7. When at my location, turn bike off, turn radio off and back on.
8. Radio keeps playing just fine.
9. Start bike and leave it idle, radio works just fine.
10. Start moving with bike and radio sound quits.

Sounds like a loose wire somewhere, but I assume for all speakers to go dead, it would be a main connection on the radio to the speaker harness that has a bad connection? (not a very good electrician here). Or, if just one speaker has a say bad ground connection, would that kill all the speakers or just the speaker that has the loose connection?

I did the self-Diagnostics test and it revealed nothing.

If it's the stock radio. it's time to make a decision. Either your gonna keep it and repair it. or go aftermarket. The problem you are experiencing is typical with the stock radio after about 4 to 5 years. If you want to keep it. You will need to send the radio to Iron Cross to have it fixed.

i had a similar issue was i had nav running in the back ground and nav was muted but still cut it out.

But just make sure both volumes are up.

I dont think Nav was his problem. Back in 2010 they did not have nav.
