I checked the fuse when my first radio went dead and it was fine, however I will check it again just to make sure. When this radio(2nd one) started to go out it would just lose sound but a light tap on the dash and the sound would be restored, but all lights still worked, however it did eventually just go black and I've had nothing since. However, sometimes I would push the face plate disconnect button and the radio would work again, but that was when I was just losing sound.
