    I have a 2018 VNL 780 with a factory head unit(stereo) system that randomly shuts off, plus the front speakers aren't working along with subwoofer. My 4 bunk speakers are working fine though. I've checked the balance, fade and the channel setup to no avail. Any suggestions?

    Also I tried taking the stereo out but the back of the unit is attached to a metal bracket. Not sure what is holding it to the bracket? Screw, nut, plastic plug?!?! Any suggestions on how to remove it?

    Thanks in advance

    If you radio face has these holes FC947804-B464-43B5-A7CE-872E623D07A1.jpeg
    You’ll need these to remove it.
