Audio System - Station Presets Change By Themselves


SOURCE: Acura Service News

TITLE: Radio Station Presets Change By Themselves

APPLIES TO: 05 TL

SERVICE TIP:

When you unlock the doors with a linked keyless remote on a '05 TL, the Driver's Position Memory System (DPMS) recalls the radio station presets associated with that remote (Driver 1 or Driver 2). This '05 model feature isn't mentioned in the O/M, so you might get clients complaining of the radio station presets changing for no apparent reason if they're using a different linked keyless remote from the one they would normally use (Driver 1 is using Driver 2's remote or vice versa).

To disable this feature, unlink the keyless remote by pressing and holding the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons at the same time until the LED blinks twice. To enable it again, link the keyless remote by pressing and holding the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons at the same time until the LED blinks once.
