Same issue with my 2004 GX 470 I have checked all fuses including radio 1& 2, pulled the amp and no signs of damage and even checked wires harness from doors to body. My understanding is there is a speaker wire grounded or the ML amp is bad.

My issue is when you turn the ignition on the radio will come on for 2 seconds then pop. Same thing happens if I leave the ignition on and unplug the amp and then plug it in again.

ANYONE?

There is a TSB for replacement of the Radio unit TSB - L-SB-0006-10 ( Abnormal Radio Operation) the replacement is done provided you are under the Lexus Comprehensive Warranty .
Certain Pioneer Model of the Radio were faulty and effective VIN from JTJBT20X8#90177558 had to be replaced. The condition concluded were Intermittent fucntion, scrambled, Off/ON faulty. So here goes, if you are in that VIN category for GX models 2007 - 2009 models. Head to the Dealer.
