Default What's loose?
I have a 2007 Ultra w/ the ARC audio amp from Firecap.
During my last couple of rides the radio/CD just cut out.
If I use the speaker toggle switch on the dash the sound comes right back.
I've checked for loose wires and connections and can't find any.
Any other ideas?

Thanks

I had a similar issue, it ended up being a bad power on connection for the amp. If you think the moving the switch helps, you may have another issue.

Does all radio power cut out or just the volume cuts out?
