I have an 03 with bose system and I have a small issue. It has happened ever since I bought the car a little over a year ago. My speakers will stop putting sound out all together sometimes randomly. I have tried to find a constant connection with the occurances, but there isn't. It happens if the radio, cassette player, or CD player is on. The sound will cut out for 30 seconds to 1 minute, then come back on. It happens about every other day. I have the entire stock setup (speakers, headunit, etc.) I searched the forum but haven't found the answer. Has anyone encountered this problem? Anyone have any ideas why it does this?

 

Have you checked the Bose amp in the trunk?

 

This may seem like a noob question, but where is said amp located in the trunk and what am I looking for? Connections?

 

Take the 7 or so button rivets from the top liner (ceiling) of trunk. These are closet to the back of the car. Once that drops down, the amp should be in the upper left.

 

Cool. What am I checking for?
