The small display screen is renowned for this fault. Press on the plastic surround/bezel and see if the display shows any sign of life. It appears to be either a soldered joint or circuit board problem. I would doubt that replacing the radio will fix the fault, and at a bet, buying a replacement unit will be expensive and probably only result in the fault returning. Never know - there may be someone who has managed to work out a permanent fix for it...

SOURCE: 2008 Mazda Tribute - Radio

both previous posts are valid info but as well i would check the fuse in the back of the radio its self , these are usually only 2 amps so to protect delicate electronic components from power surges that do not affect more robust components, it will be a micro fuse push directly into the radio by the wiring connection plugs , do this with the ignition OFF , keep me posted if you wish

2008 Mazda Tribute - Radio or clock not working, radio display only reads Mazda Tribute. Won't even eject a cd, as if no power is going to radio. Radio fuse is not blown.

I had the same problem with my 08 tribute. Decided to disassemble the display. Kind of a pain, but only took 10 minutes. The issue was in the bottom board of the display. One end of a resistor had a bad solder joint and was just sticking up in the air like a dogs leg when peeing on a tree.. lol. Hope this helps

I cannot get the CD player to eject the CD. the radio is a standard AM/FM radio with a CD player in a 2005 Ford explorer XLT. after pushing the eject button the radio screen blinks ''EJ err''. The cd...

Turn the radio off first and then disconnect the battery for 2 min then reconnect the battery. This should reset your radio and then you can eject your CD, and reset your stations and clock. Good luck

In dash display with clock,radio station indicator and outside temp.doesn't work,just all of sudden...Everything else is O.K.

My audio and clock display stopped working all of a sudden. The audio system still worked fine. I had all my fuses checked previously and was told it could cost up to $800 to fix by Mazda. I pulled out fuse 31 and wiped it clean, reinserted it and now my display works as good as new. Thanks to those on this site for your help.

Can't see anything on the clock/Radio Display

the radio display is lighted by a tiny bulb inside the radio, to change this u must remove the radio from the dash and take off the top sheet metal cover, under that u will see a small twist in bulb socket, replace that little bulb, the bulb is about $2 and avail at any full sevice auto parts store.

Radio and LED display

A moisture might have caused a short in the radio to cause this. Get the radio removed by a technician and get it dried and then reinstall
