Radio Frizzed

mrfixxit · November 11, 2002

Can anyone help me? I purchased a 1995 Blazer with a factory

AM/FM /CD all I get is the time, then the Radio station channel shows , but I have no volume, No sound at all.

ANYBODY HAVE ANY IDEAS?

Did it just go out? Or was it like that when you bought it?

If it just went out, probably the internal amp is fried.

If it was like that when you bought it the above is possible, But, a lot of times someone will take out an aftermarket radio (when they sell the truck) and put a factory radio in only to realize the wires are cut and they don't know how the speakers hook up. Maybe they got power and thats it.

Worth a look.

The radio was like that from the day I bought the truck,11/02/2002. I'll pull it today and chech the wiring.

I saw quite a few new Radios from {2001/2002} Trucks on E-bay for about $100-$175 they look the same.

KNUTS ,Thanks for getting back to me.

Hi ,

I disconnected the battery and waited about 10 min. when I hooked it back up I got the Radio to turn on, the vol and tuner don't do anything the radio is stuck on loud. I'm going to pull it out on Tuesday. I'll keep in touch . Again Thanks for the help. I build 4000HP Funny Car engines for a living ---BUT THESE RADIOS DRIVE ME NUTS!!!!!!
