    I've been having some issues with my 11' SR5 Tacoma radio. While i'm driving down the road or even sometimes just sitting, the radio will turn, change channel, or the LED screen will start to flash and shut off. Also, sometimes i'll try and change the channel and it won't let me change it or everything will work ok with changing the channel but the back light will stop working or the screen will shut off, but i'll still be able to hear music and change the channel. :confused:

    These problems generally happen at least once a day while driving. I notice it happening most of the time when going over a bump or the vehicle is jarred although i have noticed it happening for no apparent reason at all while sitting at a stop light.

    I read a thread a while ago where another member had the same issues and i believe someone said there was a TSB for the issue but i can't seem the find the thread nor a TSB for the problem in the TSB sticky. I'm hoping that theres a TSB for it because my dealer has been less than understanding or helpful regarding my sagging rear springs and squeaky blower motor. :mad:

    Any help would be appreciated! :)
