Radio Turns itself up to full volume on its own

Post by kentcolin »

Hi,
We have just bought a 2002 206cc with a single cd/radio. On the way home from buying the car we discovered the radio would turn itself up to full volume all of its own accord. At first we blamed eachother for touching something we shouldn't but no - it is possessed!
Any ideas what could cause this?
Thanking you in advance.

Audis used to do something similar. All to do with the volume control *pot* going faulty. Might be cheaper to replace than fix.
Cheers Col.
