HVAC and Radio Question

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?

 

Bump for help!!

 

Loose wiring harnesses?

 

Needs a new headunit/faceplate, see this quite a bit.

 

I have a double din factory 6 disc from my 04 XT... $80 if ya want a stock one!!!

 

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

 

do you have an cost estimate? would it be covered under warranty by any chance?

 

PM me your last 8 of the vin, and I can tell you if it's still in warranty.
