Audio “off” issue?
I was sitting in my Camaro and switching between songs when the audio went off. If I turned the volume knob, the animated volume control didn’t come up and it showed my songs playing but without sound. Voice controls didn’t work..Bluetooth or Apple CarPlay. Turned car off and on, didn’t fix it. I googled a similar issue with MyLink and I left the car be while I went into a store. Came back, turned it on, and it worked.
Anyone else have this happen? On mobile or I’d search for a thread |

This has happened to me occasionally while driving, maybe once or twice when parked. My best guess is that MyLink got confused between my USB drive and what it was supposed to be doing. I find that Apple CarPlay also gets a bit wonky. Most times, turning the system off and back on got it working again. A few times, I had to wait until the car was shut down before the audio would come back on.
Just to be certain: The time it went out for you, had you been sitting in the car for more than ten minutes? The MyLink system powers down after approximately ten minutes after the engine is shut down. |

All went back to normal, but only after I drove to my destination, parked, turned off the car, had lunch, and started the car back up again. |

Two guesses:
1. Check for loose power connections to the amp. 2. Amp might have detected a (false?) short on the outputs and gone into safe mode, and won't reset until it sits w/o power and the caps discharge. |

Yes I have had the same issue with my Bose audio system, but I had a new sound system installed, so all that I was using was the Camaro head unit with a GM-650 MOST unit to get flat sound fed to 2 external amps. Of course, the Bose amp is still connected but not being used. While listing to the USB thumb drive it will play for a while then no sound and I could not get it to play any sound. Not until I left the car and came back 10 minutes later did it work again. Also since all of the car sounds are going thru the GM-650, like the nav and warning sounds all were silent. Must be some bug and GM needs to fix it with a firmware update.
