Default Very odd radio behavior (Five Hundred)

I'm having issues with the factory radio in an 07 Five Hundred Limited. Upon starting the vehicle, the rear speakers pop, and then static. The static continues even if the radio is powered off. Music is coming from the front speakers, however, it goes very soft, and then loud (almost as if someone is turning the radio volume up and down). Nothing is coming from the rear speakers except for the static.

My first thought was the amp maybe? The odd thing is though, this morning, the speakers popped when I started the car, but the stereo seems to be working for now.

Where is the amp mounted for the rear speakers? I tried googling it, but could only find the amp for the Sub.

Thanks in advance for your help. Im new to this particular forum, but look forward to getting to know you all.

wow!! Sounds like to me you got some loose or bare wires or a bad ground get your radio checked asap. Having loose / bare wire and or a bad ground is never good this I know for sure.



But on a lighter note WELCOME TO THE FORUMS MOST OF THE PEOPLE HERE ROCK!
