    2016 242X Stereo

    I've actually been looking for it again myself. I'm needing to adjust mine because I put new speakers in. I'm not 100% sure what I did with it. Will definitely get back with it. Sorry

    2016 242X Stereo

    Check the gain on the amps. Mine was doing the same until I fried both amps. Also had a bad front speaker that caused both to quit working. Come to find out Yamaha puts the amps in with Gain turned all the way up for some stupid reason. Ever since I took the amps out and tuned them I can run...

    I believe that I found the problem. Check your amps. The gain is turned all the way up from factory. I turned them to half way and can crank it max volume now.

    2016 Yamaha 242x e-series stereo

    Anyone on here that owns a 242x e-series having trouble with the stereo system? Mine keeps cutting out at about 75% max volume. Turned the gains down cause they were all the way up. Now the front two speakers don't work. I've noticed also that the power and ground wires aren't the recommended...
