    How to fix this?



    My radio display does this everytime I get into the car. After my engine heats up a little, it fixes itself. But... it also is fixed when the car is in the sun. But 90% of the time, it's like this for a while.

    Nothing is affected by it but the display.

    Mine did that once or twice then went back to normal. It looks like some alien language. Maybe it's aliens trying to speak to us through our radios?

    Id try the comment above.

    Take out the HU and do just as Josh suggests and bounce it off of a few things... Monsoontobebrokens just are'nt worth the hassle really IMO.
