    i got that 2010 volvo , you know the one they issue with the busted up bumper and taped in sleeper windows.

    What am i missing, trying to get the 2 speakers in the sleeper area to play, theres got to be an option or button somewhere that i'm not finding.

    Any idea?

    its in the setup on the stero. you want to find "fade" and turn the knob till you get them going.

    its been a while since i've been in mine, but it was a 2009 Volvo..but prob. still has the same radio....

    if that dont work...find the two metal 'handles' that you fit into each side of the radio to pull it out of the dash. the bottom left (as you look at the radio) wire bundle is the power...disconnect it...then plug it back in and put it back in the dash. seemed to do the trick for me.

    fade doesn't do it. I figured maybe there some junk to turn them off for a person sleeping.

    185k and yeah the guy before me was a slob, took crap care of this thing,

    I wish I had the manual for this, I have a feeling its one of the many things this sleeper panel does that I can't figure out.

    Look for "fade". Balance is side to side, fade is front to back. It's usually after base treble and balance. I'm guessing they're wired?

    Look at your control panel in the sleeper. You probably have a speaker switch on it somewhere or volume knob or something. Try that.
