Reports from owners of the 2012 Dodge Ram 1500 indicate issues with the radio system, where audio intermittently cuts out in AM/FM mode and produces popping sounds. This problem also affects CD and AUX modes, with a malfunctioning volume knob observed. Solutions involve cleaning the radio unit, connectors, and wiring, replacing the volume knob, or in some cases, replacing the entire assembly due to an internal fault that cannot be repaired. Dealerships agree that replacement is necessary to address the underlying stereo issue.
All features on my radio are functioning except for the lack of sound on the AM/FM channels. What might be the cause of this issue and how can it be resolved? My auxiliary input plays audio perfectly, but the radio does not.
I've discovered that the issue lies in the weak connection between the antenna wire and the radio box. Can anyone suggest a solution to securely stabilize and fasten that antenna wire in place?
Some issues with the radio in the 2012 Dodge Ram 1500 involve it not functioning on both AM and FM, as well as the screen going black.
I had the same issue with my 2012 Dodge Ram! I ended up getting a new radio installed, but it only worked for a week before giving out again. Do you think it could be a problem with the antenna?
Pressing and holding the volume and tuning buttons for 10 seconds resolved the issue for me.
I've got a 2012 Ram big horn, and the AM/FM radio has been dead for 7 years now. However, the CD and SIRIUSXM functions have been going strong until today, December 31, 2022. The radio has been acting up, cutting in and out, so it seems like I'll have to bite the bullet and replace the whole thing.
The second radio in my 2012 Dodge pickup has stopped working once again. Sirius is functional, but I am unable to use the CD player or listen to the radio. This is frustrating!
On my radio, I'm only getting static on the AM/FM stations, but the CD player and satellite radio work fine. I've already checked the cables and had the radio replaced by the dealer about a year ago on my 2012 Ram 1500 truck.
I'm having trouble with the AM and FM radio reception. Can you please help me fix it?
