Blown Amplifier?

[Jimko71]

So on the way into work this morning the audio cut out and then when it came back it sounds like a staticky AM radio station with no bass, no matter the source. Bluetooth, FM, Sirius, and USB. I checked fuse F12 and it wasn't blown. Sounds like the amp blew. Called the dealership and they can't get me in until 2/6 (which is also when they are replacing my leaking rear window). Anyone know anything else I can check before then?

Found this - Brand New Gladiator With Static/Poor Radio Reception -- Fixed! | Jeep Gladiator Forum - JeepGladiatorForum.com

Tried it and it worked. Audio is back and good.

I had the same issue and resetting via the power and tune buttons, as mentioned in that thread, resolved it for me.

Yea technology is great. I had to reset the Sync system in my 2020 Ranger at least once or twice a month, so it's not surprising. Hopefully this is a one time thing with the Gladiaior and won't become the norm.

I've had mine a month and this happened the other day. I bought it used so I have no idea how often this happens. Hopefully it isn't a monthly thing.
