CD Player and radio stopped working - 2003 Ford Crown Victoria

bad radio or loose connection.

If the number lights are out and the CD player is also dead it sounds like you lost power to the player. Check all your fuses as the radio and CD player may have separate fuses. Also check any visible wires to see if there is a possible disconnect.

So, maybe it's time to get away from the used junk and buy a new aftermarket radio.

Most likely a fuse. If your fuse box is labeled it will say radio under the fuse. If its not check your owners manual for location of fuse box and radio fuse.

have you had any speakers or bass boosters installed in your car that werent in the vehicle before you purchased. Watch for wiring issues or possibly even battery voltage issues.

Check you fuse panel

the cd player and radio should be on the same system or as a whole, it should all be not working, there may have been a short inside the cd player, check all the fuses in the fuse box look for 10amp and 15 amps usually. being a newer car it is odd. you may need to take it in to toyota for a diagnostic check. good thing about the electrics in cars these days is their computers tell you everything.

sounds like it's a fuse issue even tho the radio works,, my vehicle has a radio fuse and a assessory fuse the controls the lighter and lights on the radio
