Radio No Sound

Adding this as I coudnt find any similar experiences. Drove 1800 miles last 5 days, no issues with carplay or radio sound. Last 30 minutes of the long drive was through a torrential thunderstorm, so we had turned the sound all the way to zero so we can better hear outside sounds.
Anyway, this morning out for a drive and realize there is no sound, no music, nothing. Tried turning the volume off, disconnected car play, turn on Sirius or FM, cycled car off and on again, and no sound. The radio knob message would blink when I changed modes withe a Zero on the display. The knob was non responsive.

SOLUTION: Then I used the native navigation system, speakers crackled for a fraction of a second and sound was back on. Everything was back to normal, no idea what caused it but it only came back by using the native navigation system. Which by the way I am still searching for a way to set the home address to.....

OK campers, time to move onto the multimedia manual. I haven’t found a guide or manual for the Toyota app, but I haven’t really tried.

The nav manual is on the Toyota owners page, I have them all as pdfs in my iPad, makes the searchabLe by phrase or word

Just my opinion............. Don't set a home address as it's directions to your house and should an unsavory individual acquire your vehicle or data etc.......

I use may dog's name under contacts, and put my address there. My thought is........ almost as easy as a "home" but should anyone ever look for a "home" they won't find one. I use Apple car play and it's very easy to say "Siri directions to Sparky"..... done deal.

Also, you shouldn’t program your garage door into this. If you forget to lock your car in the driveway, somebody just has to open the door and push the button and they are in. I use CarPlay to open my garage door.

I have had issues with the radio with no sound twice now. One time I was listening to FM radio and the sound quit working. I tried Sirius XM then AM radio and no sound there also. Later, after I parked and ran some errands, I came back to the car and when started, the radio woked again.

The second time the sound just quit and nothing would work. No FM AM or Sirius. Later, after I stiooed for a couple hours, it was working again.

One more issue is my navigation screen is fading out at the top and is not as visible as the remainer of the screen. It seems to be the top 3/4" of the screen.

I have had my LC 5 days and it has happened twice to me already. The first time the radio sound just shut off and I couldn't retrieve it until, like everyone else, the vehicle was turned off and restarted. Today was something a little different. I suddenly lost the ability to change the station. The screen displayed the station I was seeking but the tuner never changed to the new station. Changed to multiple stations without success.
