Radio Problem/Question
I have a 1993 Grand Marquis. Recently, while listening to the radio, it went dead silent. All four speakers have always worked. All the display works, but it will not pick up a single station. Even when I press "SEEK" to find a station that will come in, the radio stops on no stations. At first I thought there might be a problem with the antennae. Then I put a tape in to find that it will not play any tape either. Any ideas on what the problem is?
Also, If it comes down to needing a entirely new radio, I was planning on visiting the local junkyard to pull one out of the many models I know they have there. (Ive been many times before). What year models would work and or fit with the 1993 model? Does it have to be that same particular year and stereo? I know they have a few 93's, but the also have many 92's, 94's, 95's etc. Any info would be helpful. Thanks

makes me wonder if you had a factory amp in the car that finally went bad on you... easiest way i deal with factory stereos is remove them and throw them over my shoulder... i install cd player in my car... i bought the scoche wire adapter kit from wal-mart for $10 and only used the power side to connect power to the stereo... the rest of the speakers i run new line to new speakers...

This is another post of yours that I've seen that tells me you don't know what you're talking about. There is NO "fuse for the speakers". Not trying to be an *** but you need to do some research.
To OP, I doubt all 4 speakers went out at the exact same time, especially off the very limited power from your stock HU. I would just upgrade to something with cd/mp3/ipod. You can get a decent Pioneer for bout $140 at Wal-Mart. Mine was about that price, and has 4V outputs (2 sets), and has an Ipod plug in front AND back of the HU for more options.
