My radio tuner went out on my Sony car stereo. At first i thought it was was the antenna or adapter but i installed another radio and it worked fine. I never heard of a tuner going bad on a car stereo. Everything else works fine like the MD and the Cd player, i just cant tune into any stations with out getting all static. Is there any way i can repair this? is there a part or connection i can check inside the radio? Please let me know at entourage699@yahoo.com or anderson01@ameritech.net Thanks

Can you fix it? Don't know, what's your skill set? Can it be fixed? Probably, take it in to a shop for an estimate, but don't be surprised if the repair cost exceeds what it's worth.

I do have the skills to fix it but i am not sure where to start. I just thought it was a little strange that a tuner went out on the stereo and everything else works. i never heard of anything like that. The last thing i want to do is take it in to a shop
