O.k.,in some cases I have seen the audio amplifier fail on these models and cause this issue here,this amp is located way up under the dash on the drivers side just left of the brake pedal assembly.

If all other radio and sat functions are operating properly then this sounds like what may have failed and may need replaced.

In some cases you can reset the amplifier and it may work again,to do this locate your interior fuse block and locate the 30 amp AMP fuse and remove it for about 5 minutes with the key off,then reinstall it and see if your sound comes back then.

Let me know if you need anything else and positive ratings are appreciated.Thanks Pete.

I apologize for the delay.out of town for a funeral.

It sounds like your amplifier may have failed.This should be checked/tested to be sure by either a shop or a dealer.

If found faulty it will need replaced.I have seen some of the radios fail as well on these but this sounds more like the amplifier itself may have failed here.

you can still hear the radio if you plug in headphones to the rear inputs.
