Are you going into sources and pressing either am or fm. After you hit the power button?
In my '24, you can't get to sources. Neither the power button nor the source button will operate.

After playing music in Android Auto such as Amazon Music or Musicolet, the next time I get into my 2022 Maverick I am unable to access the radio. If I press the "Audio" button as shown, nothing happens. If I press the "Audio Off" button, nothing happens. Have to go into Android Auto and play something from a music source in AA. THEN I can switch back to the screen below and access the AM and FM radios. Very annoying!

Is there any fix or way to circumvent this issue?

Try the Physical Speaker button, next to Volume. That's what I do.

TL/DR: google has gone from grabbing all the data it can about us to sell, to grabbing our radio stations!

:eek:

I am unable to access sources, AM, FM, none of that. UNTIL I go into Android Auto and play music. THEN I can access AM, FM, etc.

Had same problem on my 25 Lariat Google it, it explains HOW TO, still had problems, got pissed of and just deleted android auto, rather listen to radio. Sometimes a reboot of phone and system works.

That does not work in the situation I described. When I switch back after pressing the speaker button, I am still unable to access the radio, i.e., AM, FM, etc. When I press on "Audio" or "Audio Off" it does nothing. Nothing until I access android auto, and play music using an AA app such as Amazon Music. THEN I can access the radio again.
