I have one of these radios and the aux port just stopped working. It isn't the mp3 player or cables.I checked those. Anyone else have this problem?

No, but mine, which is less than a year old, no longer will maintain time nor station memory. Shut the radio off, and goodbye settings. Aggravating. Boo, Porter Cable! Boo!!!!

No, mine works great. But that pirt is only meant to handle so many watts. If you exceed the wattage, you'll wreck it.

Have same radio, never failed. Sounds like an internal wiring glitch...can only be port or the mode switch....either way it's probably unfixable...too bad. You can get a Sharkk speaker for less than $20.00 on net...surprising sound.

You must have gotten a bad speaker. I have exactly the same model bought in 2007. It still work fine even with the FM tuner. I never had a problem with it.

I my brief encounter with that piece of junk radio, I observed a USB port and a small combination earphone jack, antenna port. This radio has the worst audio quality I have ever heard. I sent it back the day after if was delivered.

You should go to the Grundig website. There may be a downloadable one. If you didn't receive one with your radio, I would ask for a replacement from the company. Rock on!

Yes same thing happened to me. I ended up returning my unit. I went to the audio store to see if it happened to other units and it did. I would turn up the volume and the sound would cut out and not come back on unless I power cycled my head unit.

Yes I have had the same problem. I think that it has to do with the AUX music device it's hooked up to, phone, iPod etc.... I haven't had it do that when I've used the built in radio. I believe if you go into the volume control of the device your using there should be a setting for that. Hope that helps&#128522;

Hi Caroline,This product was horrible. I have since discarded it. Maybe I just got a bad one but it wasn't worth the effort to try another one. I tryed it with a couple of radios with the same result. It would play for a minute or two then make a loud noise and cut out and did this over and over.Don

Don't use the aux cable. Use the ipod cable to connect the ipod only and then plug the unit into cig lighter. Make sure to select radio station number on unit and use that same number on radio. Works perfectly ;)

I'm also having problems with the sub. It worked initially but now it doesn't. Nothing comes out. I've tried a different cable and different sub so I know its the receiver. Did you ever figure out what was wrong with yours?

So the music does play rarely? I found my IPOD will not transmit a signal if the inside of the car, the IPod, or the FM Transmitter is COLD. It seems after the items warm up, they play fine. I have no idea if that is the issue with yours being a different Ipod, but since it does work some of the time... maybe it could be your issue... Before I tried keeping the items warm, I would have to go 15 minutes down the road trying to find a setting that would give me the signal. I listen to books from the IPod and I was frustrated to say the least.

Don't know mine never worked the only thing that works now on mine is the aux port

What issues are you having? Does the unit power up? It can be tricky to find the right station to tune to. I had to switch from the default before I could hear my player.

I have the same problem and unfortunately have not been able to play music from it either. Maybe we can get an answer from the makers on what we might be doing incorrect.

Rob.. Send it back for replacement. These radios have a few manufacturing issues but once you get a good one there are no issues. The volume on mine is strong and loud.. It's not to be compared with a boom box volume but plenty loud for a single speaker radio as it should be. Only other issue that they all suffer from is that the smaller controls have a slightly loose feel. For the price the 450 is a much better radio than the newer Field branded radio from Eton. But really...send yours back and get a replacement

You didn't say what's not working. Is the radio completely dead including the panel light while using new batteries or using the power cord? Check all the switch positions on the radio and make sure you didn't change any positions. If all else fails, I would return it for a new one. I am very happy with mine.

Hi, I had ordered 4 of these radios and had to return one for the same reason you describe. You may just have a bad one. All the others work perfectly and simply . . . Just turn it on. Be sure you are setting the ON switch to the middle position. It takes about 2 or 3 seconds till you hear the broadcast. Be sure the volume is adjusted high enough on the left side. If nothing works, return it.good luck!

Initially it worked for me, but now it won't. I would plug my phone in to charge while also using the aux input from my phone to listen to streaming radio through the speakers. Now it stopped registering that i have plugged in the USB to get power to the phone. I tried a different USB cable and it worked at first, but the next morning when I tried again that cable wouldnt work either!! what the.. Luckily the cables still work with other outlets so the iHome did not kill the cable.
