Question
My Car Stereo stop working. It was working fine then I pushed the open button to take the head off, and after I put it back on it would play but the words didn't show up. So i pushed the rest button and it stop all togather. what is wronge

Answer
Sounds like a facis (head) problem, check out the connectors on the radio and back of the facia,
Sorry it's a bit vauge but "my stereo" doesn't go far in identifying the radio or vehicle. If you go onto eBay and type your radios model number into "search" then you will usually find a replacement facia for a fraction of the cost.
