Try battery disconnect first or remove fuse for constant 12v. That will completely restart unit.

Thank you very much , after the software reset, the speakers are working back as normal. Much appreciated.

Some issue with these ts18 based android devices on the original system.

Glad I could help. Have ts18 based in mine also and although not perfect it is a tremendous upgrade to an antiquated system and looks like a factory job. IF manufacturer in this country had made this it would have been so expensive that nobody would have bought it.
