Installed Oracle pod and rock lights and now I have no sound from my radio. Radio works and isn’t muted, I’ve switched it to AM and rebooted but still doesn’t help. Any suggestions?

What about other inputs like Android Auto or Apple Car Play? Does the radio work if you disable the Oracle controller? I know on some of Oracle's lighting systems they use a bluetooth controller and that may be causing interference.

I am kind of spit balling since I have no clue how you integrated it in the vehicle wiring system.

What did you tap into for the lights? Have you checked your fuses? Did you unplug the OBD connector from under dash as if you were connecting a tazer or JSCAN?

I have a rough country switch panel that everything is wired in to. The installer couldn’t get the Bluetooth to work neither could I. All of the pod and rock lights are not connected to anything that should mess with the radio. I haven’t tried apple carplay or other stuff but will today. I have a JLTazer installed but I would think that wouldn’t be a problem.

Do not discount the Tazer. Would not be the first time of it interfering with the radio.

Disconnect the lights, essentially uninstalling them. See if the problem is still there. That should tell you if it’s related to the lights or not. My guess is it’s not, but first step is to undo your changes and see if it returns to normal.

We unhooked them diagnosing things, and that didn’t change it. I think that the Bluetooth for the lights is the problem, gonna hook up my phone to it and see what happens, I’ll post my results

Unhooked em, totally off power and no radio still. I’m at a loss, I know it’s the Bluetooth somehow that has the speakers off or the amp off

What about un-marrying and removing the Tazer from the equation?

The only way the Bluetooth of the lights would conflict is if there was an attempt to connect to the stereo, which should not really be possible. They are actually made to be able to connect to the phone, the same as the stereo.
