bcomo called me today to say he has a radio problem he is trying to get fixed, and needs some help. He turned on his radio, the light came on, but after a few minutes he got no hiss from the radio and no sound. Now, to my knowledge, nothing has been done to the radio, as far as working on it, or anything like that. It was working. He has some questions he needs answers to.
First of all, if the pilot light comes on when you turn the radio on, would that also indicate that there is power to the radio also? Or is the radio on a separate power lead from the light? The antenna is/was hooked up, so if the radio is working, he should have received some radio signals. However, he is not even hearing the hiss of the radio when you turn it on.
Secondly, is the separate audio/power chassis on a separate power lead? Is it also fused? If I remember right, it hooks to the Accessory switch.
He needs any advise you can give him on what to look for in the way of tracing out which might have gone out.
