Help needed on AM/FM

I replaced the orig. AM radio in the 68 with a factory AM/FM I had, would light up but not play, ok thinkks I radio bad, fast forward to today. I installed a known working AM/FM unrestored - no lightes sound etc. , then I replace this one with a restored version from Radio rescue (yes three factory am/fm's) and same thing. I realize that there is an issue just dont know what it may be. Fuse is intact but no power showing up at radio. Any suggestions before I tear into this.

Re: Help needed on AM/FM

Mine lit up but no sound, It was a speaker wire grounding out.

Re: Help needed on AM/FM

Double check your connections. Make sure the wires are not broken as mentioned above and insure you have a good speaker and antenna connection. The antenna, if it's an aftermarket, sometimes won't make good contact.
