The radio/cd player on my 01 yukon loses the sound randomly. Some times it works fine then othertimes it does it a lot. This all started a month ago. Before then I'd had no problems. I talked to a guy at a car stereo shop and a GMC mechanic and BOTH said the stereo was bad and needed to be replaced. So, today I had a JVC HD stereo/cd player installed. I got half way home and it started doing the same thing. Everything works fine except the sound. When playing a cd and it cuts out the cd keeps going, but no sound. The speakers sound fine when they work. What could be causing this? The factory system is a non bose with factory subwoofer and onstar.

Sounds like the amp is over heating and needs to be replaced
and yes there is most likely an amp in the system and it is eithor over powered or over heating

The CD/DVD unit has a microprocessor in it that has to 'talk' to the radio and control system elsewhere so if it is not working, neither will the radio.
the symtoms you describe sounds like a battery fault. but if you have had the battery properley tested and is good then you either have something discharging the battery intermittantly ie. trunk light staying on or a high resistance in the main battery leads or earth connections
make sure your wirings are rated to handle the current needed by your radio. You might have a large voltage drop when it is at high volume level because it will draw lots of current. You might need to change the size of your wires to your Clarion. Check the voltage near the radio when it starts to flicker if it goes below the source voltage of 12V. hope this helps
my Crosley CR6007A-MA turntable's sound is very, very low. You can't even hear it barely. I haven't had it long at all and it wasn't broke due to any sort of abuse. I really have no idea why it would do this for no reason! Help!
I had the same problem years ago. I was told that the laser that scans the disc was substandard / weak. I had it worked on 4 different times. It would work fine for a while and then it would gradually start going bad again. I finally had to give up on the CD player and I just use it for the surround sound when I watch movies. I don't know if this was a design flaw on all units or just random parts that were bad.
archo69..big chance your laser is on its way out..it also can be the bottom lense is dirty to ,but this requires your stereo to be removed .dismantled and cleaned manually
