I have hids and just noticed today I get 107.1 just fine till I turn on my headlights. Any ideas why this is happening?

Is this an aftermarket stereo? Does the problem happen when your headlights only are on or does it also happen when just your parking lights are on?

Stock stereo. And only happens when the headlights are on. Think might even be just the fog lights. Have to check maybe it's not grounded right

I had the same problem with my f150. I never figured it out. I just took them out.

Could be. If it only happens when the headlights or parking lights are on, there could be an issue with the lighting wire/circuit to the radio.
