Just trying to avoid bringing this thing to the dealership as I don’t have a lot of time right now and I’m a few thousand miles over the warranty although I’m not to the 3 year mark yet. Not sure if that’s normal and I’m just noticing it now but it always acts properly as soon as I start driving the car. How does it get the presets back? Are they stored “in the cloud” over the data connection? I also notice the compass says CAL sometimes before the car gets moving - right now when I just did the couple starts in the driveway it says CAL. Both times I started it after the radio was on and the radio kept the presets after starting. I just tried it twice and it kept the presets, but since it doesn’t do it every time I’ll have to try it for the next few days and see if that helps it. That’s a good idea on turning the radio on first. When I disconnected the battery I checked it with my volt meter and it was holding steady 12.7 volts, but I know that a battery could still be weak and show good voltage. I find it hard to believe that the battery could get weak enough to lose the presets but still sound good cranking the engine over. I considered the weak battery avenue as a link between the radio and auto start. Another thing that’s strange is auto stop hasn’t been kicking in as much as normal lately - not sure if that could be connected? It works normally after that.Īny thoughts? So far I’ve disconnected the battery in hopes that it would reset the system but that didn’t seem to help. It doesn’t seem to matter whether I was listening to music on my phone, or FM, or XM, most of the time I start the car and get static on 87.9, no presets, and a clock that says 12:00. After about 5-10 seconds the presets pop back up and the time jumps to the correct time. But now when it turns on, probably 8 out of 10 times the presets are all blank, the time resets to 12:00, and the radio tunes to 87.9. The radio didn’t work at all for a couple ignition cycles and then started to work again. This time when it didn’t work there was no back light. When that was happening the screen backlight was on, just blank. A year or so ago I had that happen a lot, then stopped doing it for a long time. I’ve had the issue before where it doesn’t turn on and I read that it’s clearing the cache and driving it a bit then restarting it always fixed the issue. Have a 2016.5 Cruze premier with 39k miles.Ībout a month ago I started the car and the MyLink display didn’t work at all.
