This is a small complaint, but it is really getting annoying. For some reason, the radio in my Prostar turns off every hour. If I turn it on at 08:12, for example, it turns off at exactly 09:12. I looked in the manual and it says that it has this feature, but that's all it says. When the truck was new it wasn't doing this, so I'm guessing I somehow pushed the wrong combination of buttons. Does anyone know how to turn this feature off so the radio will run until I turn it off?

Turn off the sleep timer.
skibum_63, Zangief and blairandgretchen Thank this. -
If you have the key off and turn on the radio, it will only run for 1 hour. That is built into the radio. The key must be turned to the ignition or accessory position for the radio to stay on. If it is shutting off while the key is on then the radio is loosing ignition power and then the timeout timer starts counting down. This would need to be diagnosed.
Zangief and Lone Ranger 13 Thank this. -
It might depend on what kinda music you are listening to. If its crappy music then maybe thats all it can take...haha

what brand of stereo is it?
In my cascada, with factory stock radio, that comes with Cascadia's you can set a sleep timer, for when it turns off. You can also set an alarm clock on itZangief Thanks this. -
Thanks for the advice everyone. I'll see if I can figure out how to turn off the sleep timer.

My 2014 prostar started doing it today. I noticed when I turn it back on there is an icon that blinks on the bottom left of the screen. Can't figure out how to make it stop

International doesn't really have any good info about the radios. Google your model and make of radio and see if they have a manual you can download for more information.
Zangief Thanks this.
