I have a 2003 Montero Sport 3.5 liter
I got the car used and it did not have a factory radio in it so I had my brother install a regular cd player ,amp & sub in it ..It worked fine for about a month but one day I was driving down the road and the radio starts acting like its trying to go out.speakers go nuts then the radio starts flashing constant..Anyhow we started thinking it is either a electrical problem or an alarm system problem ...well we turned the radio completely off left it that way for a few months and just 3 days ago my alternator went out and while doing so my radio decides to turn off and on by itself but will not play music ,etc. just sits there and flashes even with the car turned off and no key in ignition..So we unhooked the radio,amp,& speakers completely took all wired to amp & speakers out of the car hooked up another cd player and it still does the same thing with a completely different cd player.
Also i am thinking it has to do with a alarm because last winter my horn would go off in the middle of the night when it was cold outside but no other times so we took the horn fuse out and not long after is when my radio started this..
I do not have any sort of key ring thing for the alarm & my headlights and all do not flash...Does anyone know whats going on with it and how to fix it?
I LOVE MY RADIO AND I WANT IT BACK .......
