Radio works but the mute button engages on and off on it's own.HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!

The 2015 Nissan Altima does not have a mute button for the Audio system. To unmute the Audio system You will have to turn the volume knob clockwise. If this does not fix the problems with the Audio in the vehicle You can try and attempt a full reset of the radio in Your car. To do this You will turn the ignition key to the "on" position and turn Your radio on, wait ten seconds and then turn Your radio off. Depress the radio power button again and wait for reset. Alternatively, enter Your dealer provided radio code to reset. You can also check to see if You had a call and if You did not press the "call hang up" button on the steering wheel while not on a call it could mute the radio so press it again to un mute it.

here is the link for the users manual..... I searched for a MUTE feature did not find it,,,,,, http://www.vadennissanservicecontracts.com/owners-manual/nissan/2003-Nissan-Altima.pdf
if it is the FACTORY RADIO you do not have mute button. I have a after market radio it has mute button..... good luck

i would also check the mute or volume buttons on the steering wheel. spray them with a can of compressed air, hold the volume up and spray the minus and vise versa. hope this helps.

Has the star button on the steering wheel been pressed as this mutes the radio. just press it again to un mute. If this is not the issue, then more info on the radio model type is required.

take it in for service
the magic cat is out of the bag.

check fuses. cycle power to radio,

i can hear/put in/put out cd's.????????????
huh?

Margaret, this is free public forum , demands don't play here (free)
and you double posted. why do that.? if you wish to elaborate
try posting below 1st post, as an add.
and for better help? why not post to a BMW forum. (faster)
and no car year, posted or car options listed.

Radio year, model and Car Cell phone options.

no matter.......
the first check on all electronics, is the fuse
most radios have 3 power sources, (to make all features work)
and fuses are on all 3.
have you tried all sources, AM/FM CD, MP3 USB (if opted) .
are all modes dead?
the next check is to try all buttons on the radio. ?
is there a mute button? if car has 4 speaker try the fader lever.
front to rear. left to right , still dead.?
cycle modes. radio, cassette, CD 6 pack , what ever, but do cycle them all as older cars the mode switch can stick.

The RDS is radio station text messages. for song titles.
including time, station identification and programme information.
if this part really works, the RDS part this means the radio is working, but the power amp is dead or muted.
try balance and fader.
many radios (1000s) have fuses in the radio for the speaker amp
that can blow. (shorted speaker wires a prime reason)
or some have in line fuse. and others are in the cars fuse box
which varies by maker or model year.

ok , im looking at the stock radio on level C stock 1991 radio
and even back when (stock to me) the is RADIO muting
so if your car has Cell phone muting bingo that.
and a fuse at rear of radio, (unstated purpose)
guessing,id say there is lamp that glows, CELL mute?


conclusion, no car year stated, or year radio of not origional.

mute is on not allowing sound,,,find mute button......

LOOK IN GLOVE COMPARTMENT.FOR THE OWNERS MANUAL.IT WILL TELL YOU HOW TO PROGRAM OR REPROGRAM YOUR RADIO.IF YOU DONT HAVE A OWNERS MANUAL.YOU WILL HAVE TO GO TO THE MERCEDES BENZ DEALERSHIP.THEY PROBABLY CAN PROGRAM IT SO YOU WILL HAVE SOUND.ALSO CHECK FOR A MUTE BUTTON.ON RADIO PRESS IT .YOU COULD ACCIDENTALLY HIT THE MUTE BUTTON AND SILENT RADIO.IF MUTE BUTTON DONT HELP.ITS PROBABLY A DEALERS FIX.I TELL YOU BACK IN 60S 70S 80S YOU COULD GO TO RADIO SHACK BUY PIONEER AND ALPINE RADIO PUT IT IN YOUR CAR.TURN IT ON.DIDNT HAVE TO PROGRAM CODE IT. LIKE THESE NEW RADIO SYSTEM.

Some radios have phone buttons that mute the speakers so you can talk on the phone. If you have Onstar and no active subscription it can also mute the radio thinking you are trying to talk to Onstar.
