Q: Radio searches for USB
I own a 2013 dodge dart with USB connection. The radio does an auto search on its own. How can I get it to stop, because it’s always looking for a USB connection. I don't have a USB connected to it now. So it searches for one every 2 minutes. When I am listing to the radio I get interrupted by the USB search. I haven't connected one to it yet. Do you have any solutions?
