Mild 2 Wild causing radio problems? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I have a 2014 2SS. Shortly after buying it in 2014, I also picked up the Mild 2 Wild and installed it.

Since having the car, I've been having intermittent problems with the audio disappearing from the driver side speaker. At first I thought it was a loose wire, but I realized it was some kind of power problem. As I increase the volume of the radio, the audio returns.....as I decrease the overall volume (to average listening levels) the audio in the driver speaker comes and goes.

Chevy has looked and looked and can't find the problem. It's not the speaker. It's not the radio they say....

Today I remembered the Mild 2 Wild that I installed so long ago.

Has anyone had problems with Mild 2 Wild negatively affecting the radio, possibly causing the speaker to sound like it has a loose connection?

I'm really scratching my head here....any advice would be appreciated

thanks!!!

Where’d you grab the power for it ??

It's been so long since I installed it, that I don't remember -- I just remembered that I followed the instructions in the kit.

I can't imagine it would be doing that unless you took lower off of the radio or amp's fuse and also grounded properly

Disconnect the M2M and re-test? Sounds like your bluetooth/phone speaker function is making the sound go in/out but I am not sure what would cause that.
