Thanks Mike. VW were saying I had to replace my whole head unit because I was having this problem with my Golf. The quote was $2400 for a new head unit. Saw this video. Quick trip to SuperCheap and $11 later radio volume knob working perfectly. You saved me over $2000! Legend!

Wow that’s great. You might have to repeat the process as it’s dirt / dust causing the problem. If it comes back just repeat the clean. 👍

2000$ for a new radio is crazy haha. They're like 150$ for a good one brand new. And like 30 minutes to install. So someone almost made 2000$ an hour.

So awesome. Fixed it quick. Used WD40 Electronic Part and Contact Cleaner. I'm so jazzed. Was wondering if I had to buy a whole new stereo. But I like the old school knobs on my original CD player. So big thanks man. I really appreciate it 👍

Dude... Thank you so very much! I was considering having Best Buy install a new stereo (probably $600 for the touch screen I wanted) in my minivan but this worked like freakin' magic! I used the WD-40 version whilst in the very Walmart parking lot where I purchased it for $8.00-ish. Great info, dude! Be blessed.
@MikesManCave2 ай бұрын
Yes WD40 now has it available here, I will be buying that one in the future. SCA is a generic store brand from Supercheap Auto, an auto accessories chain we have here in Australia. You might have to repeat as it's dirt and dust in the mechanism.

It cleans the contacts, but when they get dirty again the problem will return and you will need to repeat. But beats buying a new stereo.

Thank you so much for this! My 2010 fit factory volume dial was all jacked up. It’s not a good feeling when you want the volume lower and it only Keeps going up and distorting. This trip fix my issue. A used factory unit may need re programming and most yards don’t know these radios ask for a code whenever the power is disconnected. The code is in the glove box and if this parts off a used parts shelf with no code it’s useless. Again can’t thank you enough

Some knobs have issues with static or something, so you probably just fixed that temporarily. I can do that in my car, but it doesn’t last long. Typically lasts longer with the cleaner.

The point is to clean the contacts to remove any build up residue, not add oil to attract dirt and dust making the problem worse. Electrical cleaners and WD40 oil are the completely opposite product.
