Why will your radio in your car only work when you push on the knobs?
P0thed
I am not sure excatly the situation.
Are you saying that you need to press the knob to hear sound and if you let go you don't hear anything. If that's the case, first thing I need to know is if your radio using the volume button as the power on/off such as turning down the volume or depressing the knob. If this is true (and that's the knob you are refering to) then it could be a loose connection and by pressing the knob you are completing the connection and when released it looses the connection.

2003 Hyundai tiburon gt radio has no sound?
I had a problem with that when I bought my Tiburon Gt (2003) it would only work on one side of my car. Come to find out you must pull out the knobs for the bass. First just push it so that it pops out just like you where turning your bass up or down, then give it a little pull, to pull it out even further and see what happens. If that doesnt work, i would suggest going to your local Hyundai dealership.

Most GM vehicles of that vintage set the radio in similar ways. Key on, radio off, push and hold the "Set" button until the time starts flashing. Push the scan button to change the time. If the scan button doesn't work, try a few until the time starts changing. I,m trying to remember cause i just did this, hit the set button and use the volume and/or tuning knob to advance, i think this is it, if not hit the set and try one of the other knobs, hope this helps
