Default Radio

I have a 2005 Honda S2000. Generally, when I start the car with the radio in the on position, the radio will come on normally. At other times, the radio doesn't play and a green light is flashing at the upper right hand corner of the radio (maybe anti-theft, but "code" doesn't display). At other times, the radio doesn't play and a RED light is flashing instead of the green light. There doesn't appear to be any rhyme or reason for the way it happens. In either case (red or green) the radio eventually comes on, usually after driving for 5-7 minutes. Recently, I tried to use my phone charger in the power boost--when I plugged the charger in, the radio stopped playing but came back on when I unplugged the charger. What gives with this radio!!!!

I contacted a local Honda dealer who said they had never heard of such a thing. Can anyone help? Thanks, everyone.

Green Liight on the Dash is the Immobilizer, this light should only be on when the key has been removed. The Red light is on the radio itself which is the anit-theft sequence for the radio. It sounds like you are having a power issue with the radio. IIRC the fuse for the Power Outlet and the radio are related. Someone else chime in or use search.
