It's a fail safe in the radio so you don't blow the speakers up.

ok, so how can i get around it, i don't care about blowing the speakers up. It's never really that loud anyway.
Best bet is to go to a audio shop and have them by pass the govener.

thanks mark but i can't find no one willing to do it or they have no clue, that limiter in the amplifier is a big problem for me. I don't want a whole new system, but i want to replace whatever i need to get around the limiter, if it means buying a new amp with the supporting adapter needed to maintain the full functionality of the radio controls and vehicle controls then thats fine, but i can't find someone who can do it. Is it possible you can send me some instructions on what i need to do. I have a 2007 chrysler aspen with the navigation and dvd built in the truck.

i do have nav control, but i dont have that automatic volume control you are talking about. the factory installed amplifier has a built in sound limiter on it.

you guys are roockies talking about something that's not your subject a governor is a engine rpm limiter in audio there's factory amps that need to be upgraded to override the threshold and improve to something that will fit your style of music sounds like you want to upgrade but don't want to pay the cost of amp and installation that it takes to accomplish the sound you want try to youtube it yourself see how complex it is to integrate in that car then comeback and tell me how it went lol
Same problem, anyone try changing the amp to aftermarket? I was thinking it might even go to the Bluetooth microphone on the rear vision mirror. Anyone try disconnecting that temporarily to see if it stops. If that’s the feedback control, then we can just put a switch on the microphone wire effectively disabling it. Other potential feedback controls are in the amp or the head unit. The amps easy enough to change if it’s reading an amp draw or heat switch etc. if it’s in the head unit then it’s not worth it. The next question is if it’s controlling to head-unit output or the amp gain. If it’s the amp gain then an aftermarket amp will fix it. Anybody investigated this at all with changing out the amp or headunit?
