You are in the Hyundai Azera Forum. Your Hosts are pat & karens
2 y.o. Azera w/42,500 mi. After sound system, in any mode, is playing for anywhere for 30 seconds to about 50 minutes, there's a "pop" through the sound system and the audio goes dead. The radio station display screen continues to show the station, the CD screen continues to indicate the CD is playing and continues to count time & etc. I turn the system off and immediately turn it back on and it resumes playing with audio until it fails again. Does anyone know what the problem might be? Also, with whom would I plead to try and get this problem covered under the warranty? Many thanks. Eric

If you want, you can pull the radio out unplug every connection and re-install it making sure all connections are snug and secure. Here's a guide to explain how to remove the head unit...Head Unit Removal Guide If it still does it, it would seem to be an internal problem with the head unit. Someone once posted on here that the entertainment system doesn't fall under the bumper-to-bumper warranty...if that's the case, you're SOL. At which point, you have two options...look around for an Azera owner such as myself that pulled the factory head unit out and replaced it with an after market unit and has the OEM unit available still...or, simply buy an aftermarket unit with all the bells and whistles you could ask for and swap out your OEM unit. If you're concerned about losing steering wheel control, there's a company that makes interface units so that aftermarket units can be controlled using the steering wheel controls. There's a lot you can do, it's just a matter of what do you really want to do? Good luck!

Replying to: elrlaw (Sep 30, 2009 7:09 am) It's pretty much anything goes in regards to what can work in the Azera opening. You can go with a single din (regular sized radio) and end up with a pocket above or below the radio, or you can go with a double din (which is what the OEM unit is if you have the Infinity system). Kenwood has a very nice unit that has a USB plug on the front... Kenwood DPX-503 Pioneer has a very nice unit as well... FH-P800BT JVC has a nice offering too... JVC KW-XG700

Replying to: allmet33 (Sep 30, 2009 7:28 am) Checking with a local automotive/marine (supposedly high end) audio system supplier & installer I was told my "sound cut off" problem is a failed Infinity amplifier. I was further told that because my Infinity speakers will only work with the Infinity amp, not only will I have to replace the audio unit, I'll have to replace the speakers too. Does this make sense to you? Why would presumably passive Infinity speakers not be usable as long as the wiring, ohms & etc., all matched up with the new unit? What am I mssing here? Thanks, Eric

Replying to: elrlaw (Sep 30, 2009 11:47 am) Also...if it's cutting off and on, it would seem to be a short somewhere. You could pull all the speakers to make sure all the connections are secure with those as well. Ultimately, if you secure all connections coming off the radio and going to the speakers and at the amp and it still is acting up, it would be an internal issue with the amp. Anyway, the speakers can be replaced independently of the radio. That's the joy of an outboard amp as opposed to the set-up Bose employs. Heck, if you wanted to, you could by-pass the factory amp if you really wanted to. It would take a bit of work, but you could easily install an aftermarket unit and run speaker wires back to the trunk where the OEM amp is and splice them into the wires that are the output wires from the amp. As far as replacing speakers go...all the speakers are 2 ohm impedence except for the tweeters. The sub is a dual 4 ohm sub, which creates a 2 ohm load at the amp. However, you can switch up to 4 ohm speakers if you want, there will be a slight drop in output since the impedence will be higher. I've already provided you with a guide to remove the radio, I also have a guide to replace the door speakers and the center channel speaker if you decide to go that route. |

My salesman hinted at me that there is a way to bypass the issue with the DVD player only working if the car is in park, but would not elaborate. I see the safety reason for it, but if I am traveling with children (or adults for that matter) I would want it to play. Is this possible?
