Another hard "flick"?

Mine went into the shop this morning. I think the vol pod went out. No sound.
May want to try this. Just received it from Big-L lastnight. Normally it starts with the LED looking like it is in Koeran. Lines going out, one at a time. Then just goes down hill from there.

I know if they tell me anything bad about mine, it's time to buy an after market.
Good luck

Re: radio display

Its a fairly easy job if you are mechanically inclined. I just had to replace mine a couple of weeks back. I had to call around to find an electronics store that had the bulb. The bulb ran me about $8 after taxes

Can you send me the info on how to replace the stock radio light? I have a 99 GP SE and the backlight behind the led display went out. Dealer says I have to replace the whole thing, but I remember my Mustang I could replace a bulb or something to get it to work again. Greatly appreciated.

Mine did the same thing when it first started. Will work fine, then parts start to go out. Now come back and work fine again. But, it will keep happening. Till doesn't work more then it does.
