On the steering wheel is the hand controls. Scanning is stuck because of dirt or something. Push the buttons, blow out dirt, wash it off. Mine worked fine after that. (How annoying up til then though. Hope this works. Russ Werth Bowman ND

if the battery has been disconnected or failed ,then that will be the reasons for nor radio and the immobilizer working
\ if so you will need a code for the radio and a reset of the ECM using a scan tool for the immobilizer system

Radio on 97 crown vic wont stop scanning real fast

Who told you to use WD40? WD40 is a lubricant, it leaves a residue. And it can short out your radio. It could be the scan button is shorted or if it doesn't pick up stations, a problem with the antenna or receiver.

How does the 4wd lock work on awd 2013 kia sportage

Its automatic. AWD is different than 4WD. AWD keeps all the wheels working independently. Where 4WD keeps all wheels working no matter what. No need to worry about anything on an AWD set up. Speed doesnt matter, however in my opinion stopping and letting it kick in or out is best. Just in case a part acts up it wont do anything odd at high speeds.

I have a 2006 kia Sorento LX with 115,000 miles. I noticed only my right front tire was worn .A couple of days later heard a squealing noise coming from the right tire area.Killed on me while driving 60 on...

the wearing on the tire is a separate problem i would assume it would be the wheel bearing/hub assembly those can go bad simply by hitting a pothole to hard why it wouldn't start is beyond me

My 1999 Isuzu Roder keeps popping the fuses for the backlights and now it wont start

When the fuse for the back lights pops, does the radio stop working? If yes, then you will need to check for a short-to-ground in the area of the radio where your husband hooked up the memory wire- possibly the insulation of the wire has rubbed through and is touching metal somewhere, or perhaps the electric tape he used to cover the splice has fallen off. If the radio still works with the back light fuse blown, then it is highly unlikely that the radio has anything to do with the matter. In past experience, I have seen a Ford pickup with a similar problem, and it turned out that one of the taillight bulbs was shorted internally. Very unusual, but happened nonetheless. Good Luck!!

Car radio keeps scanning with no audio, how do I get it to work right?

If the radio will not stop scanning usually the antenna is either disconnected or faulty. You will need to remove the radio and check the antenna connection at the back side. The small pin in the middle goes to the antenna and the metal sleeve around it goes to ground or the metal of the car body. If everything is good with the antenna then the radio may be faulty.
