Re: radio questions
Could be the antenna too not getting any frequency. Have you checked your antenna if its plugged in correctly?

Re: radio questions
Speaker is my vote....especially if it's the factory one.
Just attach another speaker and test

Re: radio questions
After checking everything out you will probably discover it is the radio. I have several just like the one with the symptoms of yours. there are lots of people out there who rebuild these radios.

Re: radio questions
You can get a factory am/fm that has been fixed to allow an ipod to plug into it, but they are going to be at least $500. If anything, stay away from autosound, they are garbage!

Re: radio questions
Eighter the speaker or antenna. When I intalled my factory radio, the same thing happened, no sound, just static sounds when it was all the way up. I checked the antenna and found out it wasn't hooked up properly. I fixed it and it started working right away. I even had to turn it down some cause it got loud.
