    Delco radio stopped working

    I have a Delco radio, Model # 16034753
    It's an Am/Fm Cassette with digital display. It came out of a 88 Suburban.
    The radio worked fantastic before I took it out of the Suburban.
    I asked a friend who's very good at electronics, to see what it would take to eliminate the cassette player and put in an acc feed.
    He only opened it up to check for power feeds etc, and what he would need to put in an acc feed.
    This radio is going in my daughter's 81 pickup. She said she's going to use Bluetooth accessory through the FM.
    Sorry for long story!
    Here's my problem.
    I installed the radio, the display lights up. But all I get for sound is a buzz/ hiss sound at full volume. Both from the radio or cassette.
    Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.

      No with the vehicle shut off.
      You have to put the speaker right up to your ear to hear it.

        Probably due to something wrong, try turning on the device again.

            Sony CFS-5000S radio cassette player no FM reception
            by mikey5791
            Hi forum members,

            In the past i have had many helpful hints from generous forum members in diagnosing and solving issue related to most of my electrical things.

            Fyi, i have been keeping this unit of Sony radio cassette player as the cassette belting has worn off but the radio has been working fine before. Recently, out of a sudden i found out i can't get any radio reception at all (no signal from FM,MW or SW band) except some buzzing warp noise from the speakers.

            I opened the casing inside and checked for any dry solder, burned component or loose wires...

            clock radio / radio lifespan?
            by shelby5041
            hi
            ive got a modern digital clock radio approx 15yrs old

            my question is how long can a clock radio or a simple radio last ss farcas operating hours?

            since elec components have limited hour lifecspan i would imagine the radio or clock radio would eventually fail.

            the reason i ask is because i have my clock radio on radio function 24/7 for the past 7 years and its still working fine....i leave the radio on ..never turn off past 7years...thats approx 60000 hours

            it uses very little power just a few watts i would imagine that may have something...

            Vintage SONY Digital Clock Radio ICF-C12W no audio
            by UserXP
            Dear all,

            I have this old radio clock by Sony from the early 80s, I guess. The clock display works, but is dim, the function board appears to be OK - but the radio unit shows no signs of life. It doesn't produce a single noise, crack or anything from either FM or AM band. It's like it doesn't even power up.
            i opened the radio and it is full of some TRACON gray capacitors. They only have their negative strip printed, voltage and capacitace markings - no series, no temperature marking, nothing else.
            My question is, do you know of this brand of capacitors and how bad are...
