Ok better explination: With the radio disconnected the mute button sends 12 volts out when you press the button to mute the radio. After you un-mute the radio what happens? Does it go 0 volts?

bbsilver is having troubles with his and its sitting with the mute button off and its showing 4volts......wierd. Plus his dash controls just arent working correctly with my mod. I think there is some bigger problems than whats shown.

Here's what happens with my car. regardless of what state the button is in, the voltage is 0. As you press the button (toggle on or off) if briefly goes to 12 volts. It seems weird that his shows 4 volts.
