  Katelyn HernandezJul 31, 2025
  If you cannot hear sound from the speakers of your JVC Car Receiver, there are a few potential causes. First, check that the volume level is not set to the minimum; if it is, adjust it to a more audible level. Second, verify that all connections are correct and secure. Finally, if the issue persists, the built-in microcomputer may have malfunctioned due to noise. To resolve this, detach the control panel and press the reset button on the panel holder. Note that this will erase the clock setting and preset stations stored in memory.

  If your JVC Car Receiver is not playing a disc, consider the following: * Ensure the disc is inserted correctly, with the label side up. * If using a CD-R/CD-RW, make sure it has been finalized. If not, finalize the disc using the component with which it was recorded. * Check if the disc is scratched; if so, try a different disc. * Verify that all cords and connections are correct and firmly attached. * Confirm that a disc is actually inserted into the loading slot. * If you are driving on rough roads, stop playback until you are on a smoother surface.
