aliciacassarino · 02-13-2006, 01:04 PM

this morning, i had the radio on, and when i pulled out of my driveway, as soon as my front tires got off of the curbing between the driveway and the street, the radio stopped working!! help! please! the cd player works fine, so does the tape player. does anyone know what i should do?? is it a loose wire, a fuse? helllllllllllp!

i have a 7 week old baby that will only calm down in the car listening to a certain classical station, so i REALLY need some advice. there may even be a reward in it, i am THAT desperate.

Stopped working but the CD and tape player works???? Can you kindly elaborate a little more. So the radio is on but has no reception? Meaning the display is on but doesn't seem to lock on a station. Or the display is totally out? If it's the earlier of the two then it might be the antenna jack/connector came off in the back of the unit.

There is a good chance that you ave cracked one of the radios printed circuit boards. If that is the case, repairs are way too expensive so you may want to start watching E-bay for a used radio or look at the aftermarket radios.
Good luck,
Mike J.
