It has to be a bad connection..
Stuff compresses when it's cold, which could pull the connection away.. When it expands, the connection is made..

My best guess..

i used cd player as a general term. but if i remember correctly pioneers do have a low temp protect for the internal amp. sub ***should*** still play if thats the case thou

remote has nothing to do with sound other then the sub. if ur using the internal amp via speaker wire check those first then try ground lastly google pioneer pico fuse and get er done. well maybe do the pico fuse thing first anyway pioneers are stupid
