Audio Systems/No FM Reception

Advertisement


Question
I have a 2000 Neon with a factory AM/FM/cassette.  Suddenly I have no FM radio reception - just hissing.  Would this be a problem with the receiver or could it be the antenna?  HELP?

Thank you so much!

Answer
i wouldn't think it an antenna problem unless it has been physically damaged, possibly from underneath fenderwell (if that's where cable is routed). where ever it's mounted, carefully look it over. if you find nothing wrong with antenna, (you didn't say if am worked or not) i'd suggest getting an exact replacement stereo from a junkyard. always cheaper than fixing yours...
