Stock radio no sound

Today my radio was working fine and all of a sudden no sound came out of the speakers. The radio is still working and on but no sound. I do have the monsoon system with the amp in the trunk.

could be a wire in the back of the head unit. or the stock radio could just have blown a fuse or died. i suggest checking the wires and if they arent it try putting an aftermarket stereo in to see if that works

My radio was doing the same thing when I had a water leaking near my fusebox. I replaced my winshield after everything dried up it was back to normal working order.

You dont.

I would check ALL fuses first. Pull each fuse one by one, every single one of them. Replace all bad fuses. Even under the hood.

Give it a try then.

You may have a loose wire, but its highly unlikely.

If the amp is dead, its dead. Time for a stock replacement (ass raping) or you get to redo and justify a new system in the car... Stll expensive, but far better results.

the antenna is ON the back window. there is a little power amp that sits inside the C pillar. sometimes the connections go bad. you'd have to tear out the molding in the back and take a look.

You find another one in the junkyard. I've seen them. I don't know how rare or eBayable they are (if I knew I might have taken it).

You'd have to bypass the amp if it were bad.

You would have to either run new wires to all the speakers or jumper the wires at the amp connector in the back.
