Technical Radio issue
Hi
Do you mean the unit has no power..?
Or it 'lights up'... but no function for 10 minutes ??
Standard FIAT unit?
Failing amp in the radio ?
Many years ago I had a Sony head unit did something very similar, basically it was just the radio dying, might have to consider a new head unit.

Maybe. But I want to be sure. Could it be a fuse or something else?
not going to be a fuse.
If you think about it, if a fuse where blown that would be it, the thing wouldn't work till you replaced the fuse.
As its coming on after a period, in electronic terms the suggestion is something is eventually heating up enough to start working, maybe a dry joint or a faulty component in the radio.
In my old sony radio it was the power transistors in the internal amp.
There are places you can send them for repair, but it may be just as cheap and easy to buy another OEM radio off ebay or fit something a bit more up to date?

I did it. I just updated blue and me software and the radio its working now. Somehow blue and me was interfering with the radio, idk
Nope, still not working. The weird thing is, when the radio, and when I say radio I mean the speakers... I just need to turn off the car and start it again, every second or third time the sound works. Maybe its the battery or something...?
It’s the radio. Sorry but in this case it is.
