Does your radio always start on 87.5?

Every time I turn the radio on or off, or if I leave it on and start the car back up, the radio always goes back to 87.5 – most annoying?

Is there any way of programming it to start on station 1 for example or the last station it was on?

My radio always fires back up on whatever it was last set too, sound liek there's something wrong with yours.

This is probably not relevant, but just in case: When I start my Rangie with a weak battery, I sometimes find that the radio station presets have been lost and the FM dial defaults to the lowest frequency, which is 87.5. Everything else works, but I lose my programmed stations. Also, the computer screen defaults to German. Which was funny, the first few times. :roll:

Mine always remembers the presets so i just push button 1-6 to go to a station?

But no matter what I do it always starts on 87.5 after being switched off and on again.... god **** electrical gremlins....

Found the following - do i need to visit a dealer or is there a cheaper way:

Solution: I am reliably informed (May 2003) that this problem can now be rectified by the dealer using TestBook, and changing the customer personalization "radio preset to key" option.


Problem: Several owners have reported radio problems. Don Anderson reports that his radio rests to "no station" (87.7) and gets just static when left for more than a few minutes. Laurie Wadman reports the same symptom happening sometimes when she first turns on the radio. Tyler Berding reports the same problem when he starts the car -- but in his case it also happens in AM mode, in which case the radio resets itself to 530, no station.
