Hello...I also live in the Cleveland area and am experiencing the same radio and a/c problems.I cannot control the radio from the dash and the a/c runs constantly. I spoke with two local dealers and was told I would have to pay 115.00 to have a known defect diagnosed!!!! NO way...Just curious as to what you did or are doing to fix the headache...the cd player has never worked since we had the car ...about 4 years now....I did speak with Infinit Corporation and they could care less..Idid receive a qoute for 1600.00 also...thanks for listening and any input would be geatly appreciated...Jim Campbell

Find a really good car stereo shop -- preferably one that the dealer subs their stereo work out to... You will need to have your cd player replaced and the amp rebuilt. The amp is the problem. It pulls to much voltage and shorts out everything in the console. It can even drain your battery as it gets worse. I ended up getting mine fixed for $400.

hi kimbracrowe
So what you are saying is, the problem of Stereo/AC controls not working is actually a Stereo/Amp problem. After reading previous posts I was drawing that conclusion, but just wanted to confirm. Also, where did you get this fixed? I have a third party extended warranty on my car. I wonder if it will help me out here. Any thoughts?
 
Thanks for reading.

I own an 03 G35 sedan. The radio went out for the second time about a month ago. I decided to order the Metra kit and installed an after-market radio. Probably not as nice as the original, but at least I won't have to deal witht the HVAC issue and non-working controls. The radios in these cars are nothing but a cash cow for Infiniti. In my opinion Ford Escorts have better radios. At least they work.

Hi rmanguera,
Thanks for the reply. I thought of doing that too, but when I called Car toys, they said they will not touch the Factory installed radio. They said, since the radio and AC are integrated, it might mess up more. Is your AC/climate control working fine when you put the after market radio? How much did you pay to get it done and did you do it yourself? Sorry for so many questions, but I am worried about the cost of repair, and worst thing is, you have to get it repaired, as it is becoming a safety issue.
 
Thanks,
ktelang

I can confirm everything that's been discussed on the previous 15 pages of posts regarding the problem. What's encouraging is that there seems to be a sollution, but tragic that it doesn't come from Infiniti....at the corporate/national level they are staying the company line, with well-rehearsed responses and answers to common sense questions...and a face-to-face at the local dealer here in Albuquerque doesn't offer up any help or creative thinking on their part, either I am fortunate that I have an expert and local audio technician, who gives me the confidence to plunge in and attempt the after-market fix. I will report on what gets accomplished, but in the meantime, cross your fingers and say a couple of Hail Marys.
By the way, I love my G35 and have since purchasing new in Febr.03. I've just put new rubber on it at 80Kmiles (2nd set since originals wore out), so I'm invested for awhile, and the monthly payment is perfect (0). This problem isn't so bad when it's 95 degrees out, but will be untenable come November. Infinit's handling of this issue will push me back into Toyota's arms when my tread-wear indicators say it's time for new skins!

Best place is in Orlando, I swear by them -- read through the previous posts and the information is there at least twice. I drove down from Gainesville and they did it while I got breakfast. Totally worth the time and the drive to solve this problem, that will not go away by itself. Call them ahead of time and schedule an appt.

my G35s radio and AC controls blew out just a couple weeks ago. ive been cruising with full blast AC and operating radio from steering only. when i turn my headlights on, speedometer lights turn off...vice versa. LOL it blows nuts. my pop up nav still works and i put in a TOMTOM gps that tells me the MPHs when driving at night. it all started with my 6disc changer going out a while back and i didnt think much of it until reading these posts. well it eventually fried the others. FFFFUUUUUUUUUUU.....
 
anyway, i live in austin, tx and was wondering if anybody knew of a good factory car stereo repair shop nearby. any places in houston or dallas would be cool. thanks guys.
