Driving in the new Bronco WT this weekend and my wife was adjusting the passenger seat lumber and this was turning off the radio. Sometimes it was on the inflate and other the deflate and took 1 to 4 presses, but is consistently turning off the radio. Anyone have this same issue, I searched for it in the issues section but did not find any post?
This issue is really weird but you would not think there is a connection between the two systems.

You sure you didn't get one with Lucas electrics?

Don't hold the inflate and deflate together. That triggers the passenger ejector seat.

Haven't heard of this one yet. But doesn't surprise me.

Call your dealer and have them look at it. Make sure you can replicate it before going in though, otherwise it'll most likely turn out to be a wasted trip.

All these issues threads has made up my mind that I will keep my JK for awhile to make sure all the bugs are worked out. How did we get along with out them....kind of like seat belts.

I can't catch a break.

Was this Bronco on dirt mountain? This sounds like an electrical gremlin and not at all typical.

That is very weird. We had a BMW that was having trouble with a brake light. Turns out, it was due to a faulty rear door window motor! Apparently the wiring is connected somehow. You may have a similar situation.

We had the same issue when using passenger lumber button. I have a 23 Badlands built late December.

As a former classic mini owner, this hits hard 😆
I had one mini that; if it was raining in order to start the car you had to slam the driver's door while turning the ignition. That was my favorite.
