    Hello Everyone, I bought my 2012 V last year, and 3 months ago out of the blue all the radio stations went completely static. CD's, the free satellite station, and bluetooth work fine. I cleaned where the antenna screws on, my dad made sure there was power getting to the antenna and checked the cables under the panel in the back of the car. I located a diagram and list of fuses that are associated with the radio system should I start replacing them? I just don't know what else to check. Any suggestions would be much appreciated! My daily trips to the dog park are way to quiet. LOL

    That's odd. The usual complaint is the satellite antenna failing.

    Yeah, I can't find anything about it. Posted it to the prius subreddit nothing, then on the cartalk subreddit hoping an audio person would answer, but apparently they pulled my post for breaking a rule. :(
