Wasup page , has anyone ever incountered problems with they’re car after you put on a music system .. i recently upgraded my cars music system . I changed the radio to a double din first . Car was working fine as normal . After maybe a week I went and upgraded my speakers . I went and put a “ kicker 12 in “ in my truck but that’s when the problems started . After I connected it , I went and noticed that as soon as I put the key in the ignition my steering wheel wouldn’t adjust it self to the regular driving position as all Lexus does . And when you go taking off the key from the ignition the sterling wheel would stay still . Normally it would move up and down after either putting the key in or taking it out .. also you guys know that feature it does from the outside where if you put the key in the door lock and hold it towards the opening position it would automatically roll your windows down, well after I put my speaker it stopped doing that . Also one more thing I notice when I go starting my car all my gauges go up and then back down . Have any of you guys ever had the same incounter after putting beat into he car ?? Any info would be appreciated.

Sounds like you have some electrical issues related to the install. I think you should start by going back and checking the wiring you just put in

I don't know why, but it sounds like your C-BEST settings have reverted. Perhaps you've shorted a lead or put an incorrect load, I'm not sure how it could have been reprogrammed. But a dealer can set them back to how you want them. You should revisit your wiring to determine what went wrong first though, so it doesn't happen again.
