Radio not working
Out of the blue, the face plate of my radio decided to stop responding to any button.
It lights up and all that jazz, but the only button that works is the CD eject.. and then when you put in a CD it will play it but again.. you can't change volume/track/function.
So I am thinking the radio just curled up and died internally cause the CD does play but the buttons do not... its bout a 5-6 year old radio.
Thoughts?

Ya, I found that "fuse" warriorz but it doesn't change the radio yoo
So I don't think its security code related shenanigans, guess I gotta see if I can get a new face plate.

check the connector pins for the faceplate to unit interface, look for a bent pin or fried connector. If none of those, pick up some electrical parts cleaner, spray, dry and put in. I had an Alpine unit that did the same thing and after cleaning it worked just fine.
