Radio Trick
Guys,
Learned something new today.
- Took car for a quick trip to gas station. Radio worked fine
- Turned car back on and PCM was on but absolutely no sound - radio or CD
- Tried turning radio on and off, turning car on and off - nothing
- Drove to dealer, tech turned car off, got out, locked doors, unlocked, started engine - all good again
- Apparently, locking and unlocking the car electronically resets PCM (per the service tech)
Hope that helps somebody sometime.
Tim

Aye-yih-yih, glad you found that, Tim.
I'll bet the lock-unlock sequence locks more than the doors, eh? Looks like it locks PCM, too...
Well, hope you had a good ride; thanks for sharing...
Have a good weekend,
