#1530 of 1549 2007 Impala Radio Problems by johnkux Apr 04, 2008 (6:07 am)
I have a 2007 Impala with about 13,000 miles on it an am on my third radio. The prievious radios just went dead. Dealer, aren't they always so helpful?, said the problem was the radio and replaced it twice. The last new radio was two weeks ago and this one is already starting to not work. Symptoms are no sound, period. Sometimes it will start working then go dead again. Dealer said they cannot fix it until I bring it in with the radio not working. Help.

Replying to: don8455 (Mar 17, 2008 4:43 pm) The "Black Tie" stereos do not offer XM title scrolling. If you tune to an RDS FM station, you'll notice that the information from the FM station will scroll. This may be what you remember seeing. I researched in great detail after first purchasing my car. I had ASSUMED it would scroll since the earlier models' stereos scrolled the information but it simply isn't a capability designed into the new stereos.

Replying to: bugbugbug (Apr 26, 2008 5:27 am) There is a TSB regarding the amplifiers in the 2006 Impala. I believe it was fixed at the factory later in the model year run and as far as I know, didn't affect subsequent model years. However, the actual fix was to replace the amp between the speakers on the read deck (visible from the trunk) and to reprogram the radio's head unit. If I remember correctly, the newer amp has "Bose" molded into the metal casing (whereas I don't think the old one did).   As I stated in the earlier post, the hiss was reduced but it's still very noticeable by someone with an "ear" for it. I had been wanting to compare my car with a newer one ever since the "fix" came out but wasn't able to until this past Christmas. My sister bought an '07 LTZ and it has the exact same hiss as mine. So, mine is as good as it gets, I believe, which isn't saying a lot.   If you suspect you have the old amp in your car, take a look at it and describe it here. I also think the heat fins on the new amp run diagonal whereas the old amps fins ran inline with the sides of the casing. I'll go look at mine again if need be.   Good luck and keep us posted! Ron

#1538 of 1549 Aftermarket speaker wiring by junkieturtle Aug 30, 2008 (7:04 am)
Hi there. I'm installing a 4 channel amp and new speakers into my 2004 LS impala that has the factory amplifier. My question is this.   Does the system split the signal sent to the front speakers so that the woofer is only getting a low end signal and the tweeter is only getting a high end signal? For example, if I replaced the front 6 3/4 speakers, would they be receiving a full range signal or is it run through a crossover to split it up between the 6 3/4 and the tweeter?
