2001 Town & Country Radio won't work

[TexacoKid]

The radio in our 2001 T&C won't work. The lights are on and the scan button works, but no sound.
I can hear a clicking sound when we try to adjust the volume via the control button on the backside of the steering wheel.

Please help .

thanks

We're having the same problem on our 01 T&C. I even pulled the radio out and thought it may be a bad connection, but it wasn't.

I spent time yesterday cleaning the battery terminals . . . they were pretty corroded. Put everything back together but nothing. Then after a few minutes the CD started working and then finally the radio worked. Thought I had it but then after turning off the key everything went dead again.

Still struggling with this one.

Not sure if they are related, but the front windows have each gone dead recently and the fan blower is locked on high speed. I'm going to purchase a resistor block for the fan blower and see what happens. Anyone know where I can get a blower resistor block for 2001 T&C with Climate Control?

You might want to have your battery load tested , weak batteries can cause all kinds of weird problems with devices that run thru the bcm like the windows and radios. You are on the right track with the blower resistor . you might be able to get a cheaper one on ebay motors.

there also a number of chrysler radio repair places , just google for it . might be cheaper than a new OEM unit. Personally I would go aftermarket for the price the quality is much higher , check crutchfield's webpage.
