Maybe the little dial on the retro radio kit got turned or isn't in the right position. Give Bill a call at BT in the morning and he'll get it taken care of right away.

I don't think the Sony install kits have a dial.

Ultranutz had this same head unit. He might have some insight on it, or call Biketronics.

I think I read a previous thread where there's a way to reset the unit. Seems like they unplugged the unit for a minute or so then plugged it back in.

I'm 99.9% sure mine has one on the bottom of it and I have a Sony head unit. I think it was at the 0 position but I could be wrong.

They are on Pacific time. Don't know where in Texas you are, but it really helped me in Michigan when I was contacting them.
