Re: 2001 Monte Carlo Radio doen't work

Hi everyone, My radio cut off suddenly in my 2002 monte carlo. I check the fuse on the passenger side and got nothing. Can anyone help with this problem. Is it just some wiring, the amp or codes needs to be reset.Please let me know thanks.

Re: 2001 Monte Carlo Radio doen't work

I just fixed an amp from 2001 monte carlo, it was cutting in and out with temperature, and occasionally when hitting a bump or if the sub was cranked. The trunk mounted amp gets audio from the head unit, then sends it to the speakers. The amp chips have a mute and standby line - I didn't follow the traces to see which one was the culprit, but I did measure a couple dead resistors in the area. They are near a blue capacitor next to the incoming choke filter circuit, and covered with soft glue. Thankfully the glue comes off easily, but it's a commonly known issue that too hard of a glue on components can crack them - which I assume is what happened.
My fix was R706 and R707, both measured well beyond their rated values when in circuit (and the amp was off). These are both 0805 package, 5%, 1/10W resistors, and should measure as follows:
R706, labeled as 104 = ~100K in circuit (bad one was way higher)
R707, labeled as 103 = ~10K in circuit (bad one was way higher)

After replacing those two resistors, the amp worked just fine, no cutouts - and it had been completely dead for months, and cutting out for a couple years prior.

Good luck fixing, e-mail me and i'll try to fix yours for a fee

Re: 2001 Monte Carlo Radio doen't work

djs2571, thanks for your post I was able to fix my amp and get my radio working again. I had the same problem of the radio fading in and out all the time. My R706 was dead and I had one on some old electronics lying around in my garage. Replaced it and now working fine.
