Hello Ed.

USB chargers can do that, if you have any, unplug them and see if that makes a difference

Thanks Richard have now tried the USB removal, and it’s still useless !

Oh well, worth a try. Hope someone else can help.

Aerial amps are notorious for failing. It's a small box in the trim by the side of your rear windscreen.

Thanks for that. Is it easy to get to and replace ? 

Thanks
