    First off: 05 Outback XT

    Yesterday morning when I got in my car, I hit the power button for the radio... nothing happened. I looked at the display and the normal lights showing my cd's in the changer were not showing. Then I tried the HVAC system... nothing working there either.
    So being annoyed I started pushing buttons.... pushed the CD eject button and everything came to life and started working fine from there on out.

    Anyone ever seen this before? Any idea's to what might have caused that?

    That would not work in his car. Radio and HVAC controls are all together.
