A couple weeks back I posed that the stock radio audio was cutting out on my '09 Ultra Classic while riding. When I flipped the 3-way speaker switch to another position the sound would come back. I've ridden all day without it messing up and other days the sound cuts out intermittently several times. This morning the dealer replaced the 3-way speaker switch and the audio works find while sitting still but still cuts out when on the road.
This is one of those things you cant make it stop working while sitting still. You know that saying, "if it isnt broke we can't fix it."
Anyone have any ideas what may be causing the problem?
Also, when you say "cutting out", did you mean that your sound completely go away and then comes back?
I am having a similar hit and miss stereo problem with my '03 Ultra. But the sound doesn't "cut out" as much as it will sound like an AM station that is getting interference from powerlines overhead.
