Radio

[Mick 1]

Hi I was wondering if anyone can help. I recently got a lot of condensation in my a3 convertible. Since then the radio gets no signal and the steering electric controls don't work. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hi the Arial connection could be corroded, try WD40 on the switchgear.

Hi I think from what I have been told that if the car has DAB there are two aerials mounted on the windscreen depending on the build month others have the control unit in the boot these are famous for the wiring breaking in the Flexi joints that feed the wires through to the boot, sorry to be a bit vague but I have never worked on that problem on an A3 but have dealt with the same on a similar year A4 cabriolet.
