Default Unlimited Static, video in comments

New issue arose with my 2011 XLT i have a question on. I’ve searched and saw the threads about radio static from LED’s or the Key in certain positions. Neither applies to this.

Today after lunch, I got in my truck and the radio, regardless of being on AUX, Bluetooth, CD, AM/FM, all had horrific static. My radio also won’t tune into stations. I tore it apart and checked all my connections including the antenna and all connections are good. Lately my radio has randomly cut all my sound off and turning it off and back on was an instant fix. I’ve also taken out the fuse and replaced it. No dice. Any thoughts?

Most likely a worn out stereo. Ford don't use top of the line audio components to begin with, couple that with 7 years on the road it's not hard to imagine.

Plug it into another Ford. I'm not offering mine, though.
